These Air Fryer Churro Bagels are quick, easy, and loaded with warm cream cheese and sweet cinnamon! They’re perfect for breakfast, brunch, or just a snack!
Believe it or not an air fryer is pretty similar to a toaster oven, and can pretty much do most of the same things. Like toasting bread! Or in this case, chewy bagels toasted in the air fryer with a cream cheese and cinnamon sugar topping.
Our cream cheese churro bagels are a quick and easy way to enjoy cinnamon sweet churro flavor without making churro dough from scratch or deep frying!
We like to top these air fryer churro bagels with a drizzle of honey or Nutella. You can enjoy these churro bagels for breakfast, brunch, or just a snack!

Bagel – We use plain bagels here. Try this with our homemade air fryer bagels or buy a bag from the grocery store.
Cream Cheese – Start with softened cream cheese for easy spreading on the bagel! A tub of cream cheese or a block will work just fine.
Cinnamon Sugar – You can buy cinnamon sugar pre-mixed or just make your own by combining some granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. If you make it yourself you can adjust the ratio of sugar to cinnamon in the mixture to get it just the way you like!
Topping – We like to add a drizzle of honey or Nutella to these bagels, and they’re also great as dipping sauces!
We love how easy these churro bagels are to prepare! So much quicker than actually making a churro from scratch, plus the cream cheese topping is rich and creamy and it goes perfectly with the cinnamon sugar and chewy bagel!
How to Make Air Fryer Churro Bagels:
Spread the bagels with cream cheese and sprinkle liberally with the cinnamon sugar.
Air fry for 3-4 minutes, depending on how toasty you like your bagel. Serve warm with a drizzle of Nutella or honey.
