You can also experiment with different seasoning blends such as garlic powder, chili flakes, or even a sprinkle of cheese to create your own signature bagel.

If you're looking to cater to varying tastes within your household, try making a batch with different toppings. This way, everyone can enjoy a personalized bagel experience, making breakfast or snack time even more enjoyable.

Storing Your Bagels

To keep your Protein Bagels fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. If you want to extend their shelf life, consider freezing them. Wrap each bagel individually in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag. They can last for up to three months in the freezer, ensuring you always have a delicious and nutritious option on hand.

When you're ready to enjoy a frozen bagel, simply take it out and let it thaw at room temperature for about 30 minutes. For a warm and crispy finish, pop it in the toaster or oven for a few minutes before serving.
