Bagels are fantastic – they are wonderfully versatile and have really taken off (again) in the last few years. They make the best base for delicious breakfasts (smoked salmon and cream cheese, I’m looking at you), brunches, and snacks, and are beloved by people in every age group. There are always a few different bagel offerings in the supermarkets, but to find a truly special treat, find a bakery that bakes them, or even have a go at making them yourself!
Are you now thinking about going out to buy some bagels, and all the delicious things you can do with them? Here are some really delicious ideas just in case you’re short of inspiration!
-
Nutella and banana bagel
A sweet, delicious topping that will go down well with anyone, at any time of the day. This one would even make a perfect evening snack, perfect eaten while wrapped up in a blanket on the sofa in front of your favourite TV show.
-
Scrambled eggs and avocado
A breakfast classic – scrambled eggs and avocado. Add a good crack of salt and pepper to get the most out of this combination. It’s a great way to start any day, and pretty nutritious too!
-
Peanut butter
Peanut butter, that’s it. Whether you like it crunchy or smooth, spread it onto a toasted bagel and you really can’t go far wrong! This one is particularly great because it’s super speedy to put together!
-
Cream cheese and tomato
Cheese and tomato is an ago old sandwich classic, and there are so many variations of this that work beautifully. Add a leaf of crunchy romaine lettuce for extra crunch, and don’t forget the black pepper!
-
Smoked salmon and cucumber
Smoked salmon and cucumber with a little bit of dill makes a great light lunch. Either add butter or cream cheese to your bagel as a base and then load it up! Delicious!
