The first thing we should get out in the open is the giant elephant in the room. You know it’s there. I know it’s there. Yes these are doughnuts but they’re bagel doughnuts. They’re not sweet at all—like we’ve come to know with traditional doughnuts—and aren’t meant as a dessert or sweet treat, but rather they’re meant to be eaten like you would a savory bagel; for breakfast or brunch. If you’re a big fan of everything bagels with cream cheese, like I am, then these baked everything bagel doughnuts might just be your new favorite recipe to try the next time you’re having people over for brunch, or just to make during the week for your family before work and school. The second thing we should discuss is that they’re super easy to put together because you can make them by hand, without any fancy equipment. They’re a lot easier to make than actual homemade bagels, so that’s a plus in it of itself. No one has time to make traditional bagels what with the dough rising and the boiling and the baking. If you do have the time, you can check out these New York Bagels from a while back, but if you don’t have the time, well these baked bagel doughnuts are calling your name. You better answer.
