Everything Bagel Seasoning is a tasty blend of sesame and poppy seeds, onion, garlic, and salt that’s typically found on top of everything bagels. My copycat Trader Joe’s recipe goes great on anything, and you can easily make it at home, saving time and money!
In a small, dry(no added oil) skillet, on medium-low heat, add the white and black sesame seeds. While constantly moving the seeds around, toast the seeds for 1-2 minutes being careful not to burn them.
Add the toasted sesame seeds to a small bowl.
Add the poppy seeds, onion, garlic and salt to the bowl with the sesame seeds. Mix well.
Transfer the seasoning blend to a jar with a tight fitting lid.
Notes
Storage:This Everything Bagel Seasoning blend can be stored in the pantry, in a sealed jar, for up to 1 year. Since this lasts for so long, I love to double or triple my recipe and buy all of the ingredients in bulk!Tips:
You can skip the toasting of your sesame seeds if you want. Toasting the seeds adds a great flavor but can be omitted and the seasoning blend will still be tasty.
You can use a, 2 cup, glass measure cup with a pour spout to mix this seasoning blend in. This makes it easier to pour into your storage container (½ pint mason jar) after you mix the spices together.
This seasoning blend can easily be halved or doubled according to your needs.
