Steps

1
Halve bagels and spread each half with a tablespoon of pizza sauce.
2
Top with mozzarella and desired toppings. Don't overload or they get soggy.
3
Air fry at 375°F for 5-7 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden and bagel edges are crispy.
4
Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes.

💡

Tip: Mini bagels work best — full-size ones are too thick and the bottom stays soft. Pre-toast the bagels for 2 minutes if you want an extra crispy base. These are perfect for kids' lunches and after-school snacks.
