MINI BUFFALO CHICKEN PIZZA BAGELS WITH BAKED EGG YOLK
PIZZA BAGELS a Game Day win!
These mini pizza bagels are the perfect blend of elevated and unexpectedly indulgent. Consider them a Super Bowl comfort food with a twist. Each bite begins with a crisped mini bagel, layered with tender buffalo chicken and a rich blend of mozzarella and Gruyère. But the real magic happens at the center where a gently baked egg yolk that when bursts and melts balances the heat, creating its own luscious sauce. It’s the kind of snack that makes Game Day feel like a celebration of flavor, of texture, and, oh yeah ... the game.

Instructions
TO MAKE THE BUFFALO CHICKEN.
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Whisk in the hot sauce, garlic powder, and salt until smooth and glossy. Remove from heat.
- Add the shredded chicken to the buffalo sauce and use a spatula to coat it. You’re going for glossy, not soggy.
TO ASSEMBLE THE BAGELS.
- Preheat your oven to 400°. Line a baking sheet with parchment and arrange your mini bagel halves cut-side up.
- Gently press down the center of each half with a spoon or your fingers to create a cavity for your yolk to fit in.
- Sprinkle a cheesy ring around the outer edge of each bagel half making sure to leave the cavity empty.
- Top with a ring of buffalo chicken, still leaving the center untouched.
- Bake for 8–10 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and the bagels are just crisp.
TO ADD THE EGG YOLK.
- Separate your egg yolks (saving the egg whites for another dish) and carefully place one yolk into the center cavity of every bagel half.
- Bake again for 3 minutes, just until the yolks are slightly set on the outside but jammy in the center.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle chives over them.
- Serve warm. Eat & enjoy! Go team!
