Homemade everything bagel seasoning

Homemade everything bagel seasoning is very easy, delicious, crunchy, nutty and salty. Once you make it you will sprinkle it like a madmen 🙂

I heard so many comments about everything bagel seasoning that finally had to try it. I read that Trader Joe’s sells the best version so I got 2 bottles while our holiday in the US. I was not sure what to expect.

So as the name suggests I made bagels and sprinkled this seasoning on top. It worked out great. Nutty, salty, earthy flavour, it was a big hit. Black and white sesame seeds, poppy seeds, flaky salt, garlic flakes and minced onion. Such a simple combo and so much flavour. I knew I had to make my own.

How to make homemade everything bagel seasoning

As we ran out of our supply quite fast I have created my own mix. The ratio provided in the recipe is my personal preference to feel free to adjust ingredients to suit your palate.

There is no cooking involved, but you need to toast sesame seeds.

TIPS:

1. I used white and black sesame seeds for extra visual effect but if you struggle to find black sesame seeds, no worries, just replace it with white sesame seeds.
2. I would highly recommend using salt flakes. I have used lava salt flakes which I brought back from Iceland but you can just use standard sea salt flakes. I would not recommend using a table salt as it will overpower the seasoning. If table salt is the only salt you have, I would recommend using a tiny amount and increase after tasting the mix.
3. If you can try to find onion flakes and garlic flakes. It really makes the difference in the flavour.
4. Store the seasoning in a dry and moisture-proof container.

What does homemade everything bagel seasoning taste like?

The flavour of this seasoning is very addictive. It is salty, nutty, garlicky and poppy seeds provide a hint of sweetness. The texture is enjoyably crunchy.

How to use homemade everything bagel seasoning

You can use this seasoning on pretty much every savoury dish. In my opinion it goes the best with carbs, avocado or a toast. If you plan to make bread, just sprinkle some of this crunchy goodness and you will be surprised by the results.
