Bagel veggie chips are a delicious, crispy snack that offers a healthy alternative to traditional chips. Made from bagels and packed with vegetables, these chips are perfect for satisfying your crunchy cravings. Here’s a step-by-step guide to making them at home.
Ingredients:
- 2 plain or whole wheat bagels
- 1/2 cup grated carrots
- 1/2 cup finely chopped spinach
- 1/2 cup shredded zucchini (squeeze out excess moisture)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp paprika (optional for extra flavor)
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Step 1: Prepare the Bagels
Start by slicing the bagels into thin rounds, about 1/8-inch thick. The thinner the slices, the crispier your chips will be.
Step 2: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 3: Prepare the Veggie Mixture
In a bowl, mix the grated carrots, chopped spinach, and shredded zucchini. Add olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Stir well to evenly coat the vegetables.
Step 4: Coat the Bagel Slices
Using a spoon or brush, spread a thin layer of the veggie mixture onto each bagel slice. If using Parmesan cheese, sprinkle it over the top for added flavor.
Step 5: Bake the Chips
Arrange the coated bagel slices on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 15–20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
Step 6: Cool and Enjoy
Remove the chips from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Enjoy them as a standalone snack or pair them with your favorite dip!
Storage Tips
Store leftover bagel veggie chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
