Steps
Prepare Bagel
Slice the bagel horizontally in half with a serrated knife. If desired, toast both halves of the bagel in a toaster or a pan over medium heat for 2-4 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Spread Cream Cheese
Take the cream cheese out of the fridge to warm up to room temperature, making it easier to spread. Evenly spread the cream cheese on both halves of the toasted bagel.
Serve
Serve the freshly prepared bagel with cream cheese immediately. Garnish with fresh chives, black pepper, or any other favorite toppings, if desired.
Extra Tips
► Toast your bagel for perfect crispiness, but be careful not to burn it!
► Experiment with different cream cheese flavors, such as chive or garlic varieties.
► Serve with fresh vegetables like cucumber or tomato slices to make it even more satisfying.
