Ingredients

Scale

Bagel Base

  • 1 bagel, sliced in half

Spread and Topping

  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese (more as desired)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon sugar (adjust to taste)

Finishing Touches

  • Honey or Nutella for drizzling or dipping

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer: Set your air fryer to 370°F (188°C) and allow it to preheat to ensure even toasting of the bagel halves.
  2. Prepare the bagel: Carefully split the bagel into two halves and generously spread cream cheese on the cut side of each half.
  3. Add cinnamon sugar topping: Sprinkle cinnamon sugar evenly over the cream cheese on both halves to achieve that sweet, churro-inspired flavor.
  4. Air fry the bagel: Place the prepared bagel halves in the air fryer basket, cream cheese side up, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Adjust the time depending on your preferred level of toasting.
  5. Serve and enjoy: Remove the bagels from the air fryer once toasted to your liking. Serve them warm with a drizzle of honey or a side of Nutella for dipping to complete the churro-inspired experience.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of cinnamon sugar depending on your sweetness preference.
  • For a richer flavor, try using flavored cream cheese varieties like vanilla or honey.
  • Cooking time may vary slightly depending on the air fryer model—keep an eye to avoid over-toasting.
  • These bagels are best enjoyed fresh out of the air fryer for the perfect crisp and warm center.
