    Air Fryer Cinnamon Raisin Bagels are chewy on the inside and firm on the outside. These bagels make for a delicious breakfast in a hurry when it's topped with cream cheese.

    After making these Air Fryer Cinnamon Raisin Bagels I thought to myself, I did it! They are salty and sweet and surprisingly filling.

    I loved making these homemade cinnamon raisin bagels in the air fryer. I love that things come out so crispy on the outside. Not to mention it is a healthier alternative than frying them in oil.

    I was so excited to bite into one of these chewy bagels that I may have burnt my tongue but biting into the middle of one when it was still piping hot. Don't worry it was still so worth it.

    I know some of you might be worried that these bagels will take forever to make, but they don't. Once you get the hang of the process you can whip these Air Fryer Cinnamon Raisin Bagels up in no time.

    Then, you'll be like me and able to make the best air fryer plain and everything bagels, air fryer pumpkin bagels and even air fryer pizza bagels too. You have definitely stumbled on to the website of a bagel lover! 

    Just in case you're interested! These bagel recipes will not disappoint!

    I even created a recipe for air fryer bagels stuffed with cream cheese that is out of this world that is just like the Dunkin Donuts version! Oh so good and easy too!

    Can I freeze these Cinnamon Raisin Bagels

    Yes you can. You can freeze these homemade bagels for up to 3 months. I would recommend thawing them in the refrigerator before reheating in the air fryer or toaster.  

    How do I store these bagels

    You can store these bagels in a Ziploc bag at room temperature for up to 3 days.

    What did my family think of these bagels

    My family loved these air fryer bagels. They ate them for breakfast with cream cheese and for a snack as well. Everyone thought they were great, especially my husband. I hope you enjoy them as much as we did.

    Are these bagels healthy

    These air fryer cinnamon raisin bagels are healthier than most store bought bagels. These homemade bagels are air fried instead of using less oil making them a little lower fat.

    Ingredients for Air Fryer Cinnamon Raisin Bagels

    • 1 ¼ cups self-rising flour
    • ½ cup raisins
    • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar, packed
    • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
    • pinch of fine sea salt
    • 1 cup Greek yogurt
    • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1 large egg
    • splash of water
    • olive oil spray

    How to Make Air Fryer Cinnamon Raisin Bagels

    1. Preheat the air fryer to 350°F. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, raisins, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add the Greek yogurt and vanilla, stir it in to form a loose dough. Turn it out on a floured clean work surface and knead it until it forms a ball, the dough will be sticky, that’s okay.
    2. Divide the dough into four sections, roll them into balls. Working with one dough ball at a time, roll it into a log about 8-9 inches long. Pinch the ends together to form a circle, repeat with the remaining dough.
    3. In a small bowl whisk together the egg and water.
    4. Spray the basket of the air fryer with olive oil spray, or you can use a parchment paper insert. Lay the bagels into the air fryer, not touching, you will need to cook in batches.
    5. Brush the egg wash all over the tops of the bagels. Cook for 8-10 minutes until the bagels are golden brown on top.

    Notes:

    • Olive oil spray is used because it doesn’t leave a residue in the air fryer.
    • These are literally the best bagels I’ve ever tasted. They have a perfect bagel chew and are bursting with cinnamon and sugar, with a subtle sweetness from the brown sugar. These pair perfectly with plain cream cheese for a tangy contrast, or for more of a sweet treat, you can use whipped honey and walnut cream cheese.

    I had a lot of fun making these air fryer cinnamon raisin bagels and they are so delicious! They’re crispy on the outside, soft in the middle with lots of gooey cinnamon sugar. It doesn't get much better than that. Let me know what you think by leaving your comments below.
