Everything Bagel Homemade Seasoning

The Homemade Everything Bagel Seasoning You’ll Want to Sprinkle on Everything

I’m just going to say it: Everything Bagel Seasoning is a love language. It’s that perfect mix of salty, crunchy, garlicky goodness that instantly takes any dish from meh to absolutely chef’s kiss.

And if you’ve never made it yourself? Oh, friend, you’re in for a treat. Because once you whip up a batch of this at home, you’ll be hooked. It’s fresh, customisable, and let’s be real, way more fun to sprinkle on literally everything when you know you made it from scratch.

Why You Need This in Your Kitchen

So, let’s talk about how I use this magical blend. First, it goes straight on top of my homemade sourdough bagels because, honestly, what’s a bagel without it? (Just a round piece of bread, if you ask me.) But it doesn’t stop there. Avocado toast? Yep. Scrambled eggs? Absolutely. Roasted veggies? Game-changer. You can even mix it into cream cheese or houmous for an extra hit of flavour.

I keep a jar of this on my counter at all times because it just makes meals feel special with basically zero effort, which is exactly the kind of kitchen hack I love.

Here’s what you’ll need:

Recipe

1. In a small mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients

2. Stir well to evenly distribute the seeds and seasonings.

Pro Tips for the Best Flavour

• Use quality ingredients. Since this is such a simple mix, the flavour really depends on the freshness of your spices.

• Toast it lightly. If you want to take things up a notch, toast the sesame and poppy seeds in a dry pan for a couple of minutes. It brings out their nutty, rich flavour.

• Customise it! Love garlic? Add more. Want it saltier? Sprinkle in a little extra sea salt. Making this yourself means you get to tweak it just the way you like.

Ways to Use It (Besides Bagels & Avocado Toast)

If you’re anything like me, you’ll start finding excuses to sprinkle this on just about everything. Here are a few fun ways to use it:

• Stir it into sourdough discard crackers before baking

• Sprinkle over roasted potatoes or sweet potatoes

• Mix it into a homemade salad dressing

• Coat a soft-boiled egg for a quick snack

• Pop it over your popcorn for a savoury twist

Honestly, the possibilities are endless, and once you start, you’ll never stop.
