Preparation
Why make your own everything bagel seasoning?
You can adjust the flavors to your taste and you’ll know exactly what is in the seasoning. There are no additives, preservatives, fillers, or colorings.
Can you make seasoning blends ahead of time?
Absolutely! We typically make a large jar and use it over the course of several months.
How much everything bagel seasoning should I use?
This recipe is a 1:1 with store bought everything bagel seasoning, so use it exactly as you would when using a commercially prepared blend. We also like to use this as a topping so sprinkle as much or as little as you’d like!
Storage and leftovers
How do you store homemade everything bagel seasoning?
Spice blends should be stored in an airtight container in a cool dry environment (like an air conditioned house).
Do not store them in the refrigerator as they will condensate when you bring them out and it can cause clumping.
How long will everything bagel seasoning last?
Dried spice blends theoretically last forever, but will begin to lose flavor potency after about 6 months. Check your spice labels and make sure not to use out-of-date spices.
Tips and tricks
✅ Double or triple the recipe to keep on hand for whenever you need it!
✅ The spices may separate a little while stored. Just go ahead and give them a good shake or stir to mix them back up.
✅ This recipe is gluten free as written, but always make sure to check each ingredient!
✅ If you can’t find the black toasted sesame seeds, just replace them with the same amount of white sesame seeds.
✅ Add this to your cream cheese dip for a fun and flavorful boost!
