Tik Tok Stuffed Bagels
These Tik Tok Stuffed Bagels are going viral and there is a good reason! Bagels are sliced and stuffed with a sweetened cream cheese. They are brushed with a garlic butter and sprinkled with parmesan cheese before getting baked in the oven. These totally take bagels to a whole new level. This includes the directions for the air fryer, as well.
Bagels have long been a beloved breakfast choice since as long as I can remember, but have you ever considered stuffing them with a delicious filling? Stuffed bagels with cream cheese are a delightful twist on a classic favorite, perfect for breakfast or brunch.
With endless filling possibilities, you can create a batch that caters to everyone’s taste for your next gathering. This one is really a winner amongst all of my breakfast recipes.
Bagels have been my best friend since back in my younger years when I worked at a bagel bakery. I ate my weight in bagels every shift I was there (and subsequently gained 5 pounds). It was totally worth it to gain as it’s really hard to be in a bakery with all the delicious smells and NOT eat the food.
TikTok stuffed bagels often feature a simple, visually appealing method of creating these treats that is totally fun. The trend typically involves taking a raw bagel dough, stuffing it with various delicious fillings, and then baking it to create a delightful snack or meal.
Videos I saw on TikTok showcase the entire process, from kneading the dough to cutting it open and revealing the gooey, cheesy, or sweet filling inside. I made it easy for you by using bagels already made, but feel free to make them from scratch!
You know what? We might as well make these stuffed bagels alongside my Banana Pudding Pancakes and make it a carb party.
