Ingredients
For the Bagel Chips
- 4 Plain Bagels
- 120 ml Olive Oil
- 1 tsp Black Pepper
- 1 tsp Dried Oregano
- 1 tsp Dried Thyme
- Flaky Sea Salt, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F).
- Thinly slice each bagel, aiming for 20-25 slices per bagel. A helpful method is to quarter each bagel and cut them straight from one side of the quarter rather than trying to follow a curve of a whole bagel.
- In a large bowl, mix olive oil with black pepper, dried oregano, and dried thyme.
- Add the sliced bagel pieces to the bowl, ensuring thorough coating in the seasoned oil.
- Arrange the bagel slices on a lined baking tray in a single layer so that they do not overlap.
- Place the tray into the oven and bake for 10 minutes until the slices turn golden brown.
- Remove the tray from the oven and flip the bagel crisps over.
- Return the tray to the oven for an additional 3-5 minutes. They should be golden brown when finished. To achieve this, they made need a little longer so keep a close eye on them.
- Take the crisps out of the oven and allow them to cool slightly on the tray before transferring to a serving bowl or dish.
- Sprinkle sea salt over the crisps to taste, then serve.
Recipe Notes
- Even Slicing: Keep bagel slices uniformly thick for consistent crispiness.
- Proper Coating: Thoroughly coat bagel slices with seasoned oil for maximum flavour absorption.
- Lining the Tray: Prevent sticking by using parchment paper or a silicone baking mat on the tray.
- Golden-Brown Indicator: Look for a golden-brown colour during baking for perfectly toasted bagel crisps.
- Flip for Evenness: Flip crisps halfway through baking to ensure even crispiness on both sides.
- Salt After Baking: Preserve crisp texture by sprinkling sea salt post-baking; salting before may draw out moisture.
