Everything bagels are one of the only types of bagels that I buy from the supermarket. They have all the flavor zip that I need to start my day and the onion and sesame seed mix the best with the range of cream cheese.
So I decided to bake them at home. When that smell of the topping cooking on that delicious bagel crust filled my kitchen I knew I had success. You will not regret home made bagels.
