Notes

TO STORE. Keep leftovers in the refrigerator for up to three days.

TO FREEZE. Air fryer bagel bites freeze well. Keep them in the freezer for up to three months.

TO REHEAT. To enjoy them again, reheat in a preheated air fryer for 3-4 minutes until heated through.

Variations

Use a different base sauce. Not a fan of traditional pizza sauce? No problem! Use a pesto, BBQ, basil, or ranch dressing instead.
Cheesy bagel bites. Make a mini version of 4-cheese pizza using a blend of mozzarella, gorgonzola, parmesan, goat, or cheddar cheese.
Sweet bagel bites. Enjoy dessert-style bagel bites with cream cheese, almond butter, strawberry jam, banana, and Nutella toppings.
