Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 standard bagels split (or 4 mini bagels, split)
  • 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 3 tablespoons pizza sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese optional

Method
 

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 370℉ if your model requires preheating.
  2. Place the split bagel halves cut side up on a work surface and brush the cut sides evenly with olive oil.
  3. Sprinkle the garlic powder and dried oregano evenly over the oiled bagel halves.
  4. Arrange the seasoned bagel halves in a single layer in the air fryer basket or tray, cut side up, with a little space between each piece.
  5. Air fry the bagel halves for 3 minutes at 370℉, until the cut sides are lightly golden and crisp.
  6. Carefully remove the basket or tray and transfer the toasted bagel halves to a work surface if needed.
  7. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the cut sides of the toasted bagel halves, going close to the edges.
  8. Sprinkle the mozzarella evenly over the sauced bagels, then top with Parmesan if using and any additional desired toppings.
  9. Return the assembled bagel pizzas to the air fryer basket or tray in a single layer.
  10. Air fry for 4 minutes at 370℉, until the cheese is melted and lightly golden on top.
  11. Remove the bagel pizzas from the air fryer and let them cool for 1 to 2 minutes before serving.

Notes

- For softer, just melted cheese without browning, air fry the topped bagel pizzas for 3 minutes instead of 4 minutes.
- Keep the bagel halves in a single layer with space between them so the air fryer can crisp the edges evenly.
- You can swap standard bagels for mini bagels without changing the time or temperature as long as you keep them in a single layer.
- Leftover bagel pizzas can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 2 months in an airtight container with parchment between layers.
- To reheat from the refrigerator, air fry at 350℉ for 3 to 4 minutes; from frozen, air fry at 350℉ for 5 to 7 minutes until heated through and crisp.
