At Sweet C’s, I add lots of tips in all of my recipes – because I am a home cook without any formal training, and I find I am more confident making dishes when I understand why it works, and what each ingredient means to the flavor of a recipe – my goal is for even the most beginner home cook to feel empowered in the kitchen.
I want each reader to walk away with a solid knowledge of each recipe, with all of the tips I’ve gathered from extensive testing of each recipe. I also answer questions my friends and family have asked about my recipes, to help everyone better understand the processes we use – and why!

There is nothing better than the flavor of a freshly-baked cinnamon raisin bagel. These are perfect bagels, chewy with the warmth of cinnamon.
The thing that prevents me from enjoying homemade bagels more often is how much work they are! Now that I’ve perfected the art of bagels in the air fryer, these are a treat I can enjoy all the time.

How To Make Air Fryer Bagels
This bread can stay up to three days in a sealed container at room temperature.
- 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.
Tips For Perfect Air Fryer Bagels
Measure flour by scooping lightly with your measuring cup and using a butter knife or other straight edge to scrape across the top.
When mixing the dry and wet ingredients, make sure not to overmix. Overmixing can make your bread tough and chewy.
Mixing to “just combined” also helps the wet ingredients retain air to keep your bread nice and fluffy.
