Have you ever tried the Dunkin Donuts Bagel Bites? Every time we’re near a DD my daughter asks for them, I don’t blame her, they’re very tasty! Sadly, we don't live near a Dunkin Donuts, so I’ve been trying to recreate these for her for a long time, and this batch is finally the one, so I’m sharing it with you! These homemade treats come out soft and deliciously filled with cream cheese, wrapped in a nice toasted shell from the air fryer. These yummy stuffed bagels make for a tasty breakfast or an anytime snack.  

This recipe uses basic, simple ingredients, and it’s super easy! If you don’t want it to be too cheesy, cut the amount of cream cheese in half. You could also use different flavors of cream cheese. I’ve used garlic butter instead of an egg wash and it turned out great too. My son asked me to make him one with peanut butter and banana slices, it turned out super tasty too! You can really stuff these with whatever your heart desires!
