Equipment

  • air fryer

Ingredients

  • 2 bagels sliced in half

Instructions

If toasting bagels from room temperature follow these directions:

  • No need to preheat your air fryer, simply place your bagel halves cut-side up in the air fryer basket in a single layer. How many you can cook at once will depend on the shape and size of your air fryer.
  • Toast for 3-4 minutes at 350℉ until golden brown. For lightly toasted, 2.5-3 minutes is perfect. For more crispy, toast for 4 minutes.
  • Keep in mind for subsequent batches, that they'll be ready faster since the air fryer is already heated up.

When toasting bagels from frozen, follow these directions:

  • For frozen, it's best to preheat the air fryer for faster, even cooking. Set it to 350℉. When the air fryer is heated, place your frozen bagel in the basket and cook for 5-6 minutes until heated through. Tip: Do not allow the bagels to thaw before toasting.

Notes

​Storage: If you have leftover bagels, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a few days. Reheat in the air fryer for a couple of minutes before serving.
