For the best flavor, use high-quality cream cheese. If you prefer a sweeter touch, adjust the amount of honey or maple syrup. Toast your bagels just enough to give them a satisfying crunch without burning them.

Easy Variations

• Add Nuts: Sprinkle chopped walnuts or pecans on top for an extra crunch.
• Fruit Swap: Try using strawberries or blueberries instead of bananas.
• Spice It Up: Mix in a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg into the cream cheese for a cozy flavor.
• Nut Butter: Swap cream cheese for almond or peanut butter for a nutty twist.

What to Serve With It

Pair your sesame bagel with:

• A fresh fruit salad for a refreshing side.
• Your favorite yogurt for added protein.
• A cup of coffee or tea to complement the flavors.
• Hard-boiled eggs for a protein-packed breakfast.

Storage and Reheating

This bagel is best enjoyed fresh. However, if you have leftovers, store the assembled bagel in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one day. To reheat, lightly toast the bagel halves again to restore their texture.
