Let’s toast it up!

I like to split the bagels, lightly butter them and toast in a oven on the broiler setting until golden.

Everything bagel seasoning is a popular, savory blend made from dried garlic, dried onion, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, and coarse salt. Originally a topping for NYC-style bagels, it has exploded in popularity as a versatile pantry staple used to add instant crunch and flavor to avocado toast, eggs, and roasted vegetables.

What's in the Blend?

The traditional recipe features a simple balance of pantry staples:

• Sesame seeds: White and black sesame seeds provide a nutty flavor and signature look.

• Poppy seeds: These give the blend its signature crunch.

• Dried minced garlic & onion: The backbone of the savory flavor. (Be sure to use dried flakes, not powders, to maintain the right texture).

• Coarse/Flaky Salt: Adds a necessary punch of saltiness. 

How to Make It Yourself

Making your own blend at home is cheaper and highly customizable. Simply mix the following ingredients in a small bowl and store in an airtight container for up to 6 months: 

• 2 tablespoons poppy seeds

• 1 tablespoon white sesame seeds

• 1 tablespoon black sesame seeds

• 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon dried minced garlic

• 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon dried minced onion

• 2 teaspoons flaked sea salt or coarse kosher salt [1]

Where to Buy It

If you prefer store-bought, almost every major grocery store carries its own version. Some of the most popular options include: 

• Trader Joe's: Everything but the Bagel Seasoning (the product that originally popularized the bottled seasoning)

• McCormick: All Purpose Everything Bagel Seasoning

• King Arthur Baking Company: Everything Bagel Topping

• Aldi: Everything Bagel Seasoning Blend 

Popular Ways to Use It

The name isn't an exaggeration—the blend can be sprinkled on almost anything. Try it on: 

• Breakfasts: Fried or scrambled eggs, omelets, and avocado toast.

• Snacks: Hummus, cream cheese dips, and buttered popcorn.

• Mains: Roasted vegetables, baked potatoes, or as a crunchy coating for chicken and fish.
