Step 1

If using an oven, preheat the oven according to dough package instructions, typically 350 F.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, 1/2 cup shredded cheddar and scallions. Fold together until fully incorporated.

Step 3

Lay one of the crescent roll dough triangles flat on a clean work surface. Sprinkle cheddar cheese on top of the wider side of the triangle. Lightly press the cheese into the dough, then take the long skinny end of the triangle and fold it up towards the straight edge of the triangle. Press the dough together to form one rectangular-shaped piece. With a cookie scoop, place about 1 to 1½ tablespoons (whatever will comfortably fit) of cream cheese filling into the center. Wrap the edges of the dough around the cream cheese filling, fully encasing it. Pinch the edges of the dough to make sure there are no openings or holes. Gather the pinched edges at the top of the ball and create a seam (it should resemble a soup dumpling). Press the seam together and flatten it into the ball. Place the bagel bite seam-side down on a sheet pan. Repeat with all of the dough.

Step 4

Brush each bagel bite with egg wash. Top with a generous sprinkle of everything seasoning.

Step 5

Bake according to package instructions, typically 12 to 15 minutes, or air-fry for 9 to 10 minutes, until the bagel bites are golden-brown. Enjoy!
