Notes
To make homemade bagel chips:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously spray a 13 by 18-inch baking sheet with olive oil or avocado oil cooking spray.
Thinly slice 2 to 4 plain bagels into coins (you have to cut at a slight angle).
Spread bagel coins out in a single layer on baking sheet (you'll have to use 2 sheets if using 4 bagels).
Generously spray tops of bagel coins with cooking spray. Sprinkle lightly with salt. Bake in preheated oven about 12 to 15 minutes, turning once halfway through baking until slightly golden brown, and fully crisp.
