If you have an Instagram account, it was no doubt clogged with photos of rainbow bagels<\/a>\u2014with heavy schmears of Funfetti cream cheese, naturally\u2014at some point last year.<\/p>\n

While we\u2019re firm believers that Funfetti does not belong anywhere near a bagel, the mere existence of this viral food fad proves the nation\u2019s obsession with the holey rounds knows no bounds. And people are finally willing to take their bagels outside the cream cheese comfort zone. Attention, brunch hosts: Never stress out about cold pancakes or an underwhelming frittata again. Opt for a bagel-and-cheese spread instead. Technicolor swirls optional.<\/p>\n

Everything Bagels<\/h2>\n

An everything bagel requires a strong and sturdy cheese, as any delicate or subtle flavors will be overpowered by sesame seeds, onion, and garlic. Who\u2019s afraid of a little bad breath? Not you, so start with marinated feta\u2014the cheese takes on a rounded flavor from the olive oil and herbs without losing its briny bite. Gobble it with an everything bagel for a breakfast with Mediterranean flair. Za\u2019atar in your pantry? Sprinkle it on. Leftover pesto in your fridge? That works. Spare Piment d\u2019Espelette on the spice rack? It\u2019s at home here, too.<\/p>\n

Or go in a totally different direction and melt raclette on the zesty bagel. The cheese\u2019s pungency and slight meatiness harmonize with the crusty ring\u2019s flavorful seeds, such as musky caraway and nutty poppy. Add some caramelized onions\u2014and we wouldn\u2019t turn up our noses at lardons, either\u2014for the apr\u00e8s ski pizza bagel you didn\u2019t know you were missing.<\/p>\n

Cinnamon Raisin Bagels<\/h2>\n

Here\u2019s the thing about a cinnamon raisin bagel: It\u2019s dessert in disguise. But given the right cheese, it can hang with more savory pals. Bleu de Ch\u00e8vre Cendr\u00e9 plays off the raisins particularly well, offering a salty-sweet combo. Less aggressive than other blues, this goat wheel craves sweet cinnamon to accentuate its creaminess.<\/p>\n

Cinnamon raisin bagels beg for a generous amount of butter\u2014amplify that classic pairing with D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne<\/a>, a triple-cream cow\u2019s milk disk made in Burgundy that tastes like cream cheese and brie had a baby. This highly spreadable cheese makes the bagel come across less sweet, yet still plenty indulgent. Even Aunt Doris\u2014who claims she doesn\u2019t like \u201cfancy cheese\u201d\u2014will come back for seconds of this combo.<\/p>\n

Bagel Chips<\/h2>\n

There\u2019s something very \u201cme time\u201d about the plain bagel chip, which is basically a vehicle for whatever you eat it with. Don\u2019t think too hard about this one: You\u2019ve had a long day, and you\u2019re looking for an easy snack. That\u2019s where dill havarti comes in. Put on some sweats and slice off a generous hunk\u2014the soft texture offers a welcome contrast to the crunch.<\/p>\n

Bagel chips can play with the big cheeses, too. The mushroom funk of the much-heralded Rush Creek Reserve<\/a> doesn\u2019t overpower the chips\u2019 mild salty flavor. The best part? You can dunk crisps straight into the runny spruce bark\u2013encased cheese wheel. No bowl required.<\/p>\n
