If you are gluten free, it has probably been years since you have had bagel chips. I completely forgot they existed until I saw them on sale at the store. I knew they would be so easy to make.
You can make them with any seasoning you like. I love using everything bagel, Italian seasoning, and garlic. I share a bunch of easy flavor options below!
The holiday season is coming up, and these gluten free bagel chips are so easy to serve with your favorite dips!! If you are looking for more appetizers and some incredible dip recipes to dip these gluten free bagel chips into, here are my best gluten free appetizer recipes!
Why Make This Recipe:
- My gluten free bagel chips recipe is not only so easy to make, but they cost a fraction of what you would pay to buy them in the store!
- You can vary the seasonings in dozens of delicious ways. I will list some of my favorites below.
- They are made for dipping, but they taste so good we often eat them plain!
- Make them ahead by slicing the bagels the day before.
- Bake them in the oven, toaster oven, or in your air fryer!
Ingredient Notes:
- Gluten Free Bagels - You can use store-bought gluten free bagels or make my yummy homemade Gluten Free Bagels recipe.
- Everything Bagel Seasoning - I used Trader Joe's Everything Bagel Seasoning, but you can also easily find this seasoning made by Watkins, Simply Organic, McCormick, and Thrive Market.
- Butter - I recommend using unsalted butter if you are going to season these bagel chips.
- Olive Oil - Use olive oil OR Butter. If you use olive oil, be sure to check to ensure your olive oil is gluten free.
Tips For Success:
- Slice the bagels thinly, so they get nice and crispy.
- If you want to use a healthier fat, use good quality olive oil. High-quality olive oil has a higher smoking point than cheaper olive oils. You can check out my research on the best oils to use. I also go into the smoking points of oils and why it is so important!
Recipe Step-By-Step Directions:
If you use store-bought gluten-free bagels, be sure they are completely thawed to room temperature! Preheat the oven to 350º F.
Step 1: Grab a cutting board and a serrated bread knife. Place a bagel onto a cutting board and slice it vertically into rounds. Most store-bought gluten free bagels are pre-sliced, so don't worry if some slices are halves.
Step 2: Melt the butter in a microwave-safe dish. Drizzle it over the bagel rounds and toss it to coat. Sprinkle the seasonings in and mix well.
Flavor Options:
I love using Penzey's Spice Blends to season bagel chips. Penzeys spices are gluten free and therefore safe...not to mention you have 40+ flavors to try out!!
- Everything Bagel - I mentioned brands in the ingredients notes section. I also like Newman's Everything Bagel seasoning and it is also gluten free.
- Garlic Powder and Salt or Garlic Salt
- Ranch Seasoning
- BBQ Seasoning
- Salt and Black Pepper
Recipe FAQ:
Yes! Just use either olive oil or dairy-free butter.
Many store-bought gluten free bagels have eggs, but my homemade gluten free bagel recipe is egg-free.
If you need to store the bagel chips, you can store them in an airtight container. You may need to re-crisp them in the oven or toaster oven.
Serve With These Dips:
- Roasted Red Pepper Cream Cheese
- Roasted Hatch Chile Hummus
- Easy Roasted Eggplant and Red Pepper Dip
- Hot Cream Cheese Dip

I am anxious to make these because I used to love the glutened kind. I just have two questions: when you say ‘slice them into rounds’, what exactly do you mean? At the store I shop, they don’t have gluten free bagels (in fact, I don’t think I have ever seen them anywhere else either!, but I don’t get out much!), so would it work if I used hamburger buns made by Canyonhouse Bakery and I slice them in half then bite size pieces and let them dry out then mix them with the melted butter then bake them for a few minutes? The 2nd question is easier: what if I don’t want to us any seasoning? Last question I just thought of : I’m going on vacation at the end of the month. I’ll be gone 5 days. How far in advance should I make these?
Thank you very much.

Hi Jeannette, are you in the U.S.? If your store carries the Canyon Bakehouse hamburger buns, maybe they can order the bagels for you too. The texture of their bagels is different from their hamburger buns, but it should work. I slice the bagels into rounds by cutting the bagels top down. You can see in the step by step photos the shape. In your case, slice them thinly, but not too thin that they burn during baking. You can season or not season them. These won't keep super long, as gluten free has fewer preservatives, so I would make them when you get home.

Love these!

I am so glad you gave this recipe a try. Did you use the Everything Bagel topping?
