Step-by-Step Instructions for Bacon Cream Cheese Bagels

  2. Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).

  4. Evenly divide the creamy mixture into each prepared bagel, using a spatula to smooth out the tops.

  6. Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, then garnish with reserved crumbled bacon and chopped chives.
