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
- 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.
- 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.
- In a small bowl whisk together the egg and water.
- 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.
- 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.
