Ingredients

  • 4 large sesame bagels
  • 7 oz cream cheese
  • 5 oz cooked bacon cooled and diced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp sour cream
  • 1 tbsp chopped chives
  • 1 tsp hot sauce optional
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a small mixing bowl, combine 7 oz cream cheese, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 5 oz diced cooked bacon, 1 tbsp mayonnaise, 1 tbsp sour cream, and 1 tsp hot sauce (if using).
  • Season with salt and pepper, and mix until smooth. Reserve a small portion of bacon and chives for garnish.
  • Slice a thin piece off the base of each sesame bagel to stabilize it, placing them seed-side down. Carefully run a knife around the center without cutting through, then push the center outward with your thumbs to create a cavity.
  • Fill the hollowed bagels evenly with the creamy bacon mixture, smoothing the tops. Arrange on a baking tray and bake at 190°C/375°F for 12–15 minutes, until the tops are golden and the cheese is bubbling.
  • Remove carefully, as the filling will be hot, and sprinkle with the reserved bacon and chives. Serve immediately.
