Print Recipe

A simple, versatile, and flavorful homemade everything bagel seasoning blend made with toasted sesame seeds, poppy seeds, garlic, onion, salt, and pepper. Perfect for elevating bagels, roasted veggies, popcorn, and more.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds (black and white mixed preferred)
  • 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
  • 1 tablespoon dried minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon dried minced onion
  • 1 tablespoon sea salt or kosher salt (Diamond Crystal kosher salt recommended)
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Optional: 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Toast the sesame seeds: Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Add 3 tablespoons of sesame seeds and stir constantly for 3-5 minutes until golden and fragrant. Remove immediately once they start popping to prevent burning.
  2. Combine dry ingredients: In a mixing bowl, add the toasted sesame seeds, 2 tablespoons poppy seeds, 1 tablespoon dried minced garlic, 1 tablespoon dried minced onion, 1 tablespoon sea salt, and 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper.
  3. Add optional smoked paprika: Sprinkle in 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika if desired for a smoky twist.
  4. Mix thoroughly: Use a spoon or small whisk to combine all ingredients evenly.
  5. Store properly: Transfer the seasoning blend into an airtight jar or container. Label with the date and let it rest at least an hour before first use to allow flavors to meld.

Notes

Toast sesame seeds separately to avoid burning garlic or onion flakes. Stir constantly during toasting. Store in an airtight container away from heat and sunlight. Use within 6 weeks for best flavor. Adjust salt and garlic ratios to taste. Avoid moisture to keep seasoning crunchy.
