Chef's Pro Tips
For deeper flavor, lightly toast your loose everything bagel spices in a dry skillet for 60 seconds until fragrant before mixing them with the butter.
Ensure your crackers are completely cool before sealing them in storage containers to prevent moisture buildup and sogginess.
Storage Guide
Store these Everything Bagel Bites in a truly airtight container (like a glass jar with a rubber seal) at room temperature. They maintain peak crispness for up to two weeks if stored properly.
Avoid These Mistakes
✕ Baking too hot or too long, which burns the garlic and onion flakes, leading to bitterness.
✕ Overcrowding the baking sheet, which causes the crackers to steam instead of crisping.
✕ Storing the crackers while they are still warm, guaranteeing a loss of crunch.
