Ingredients
- Large flour tortillas

- Butter
- Everything Bagel seasoning, optional
These Crispy Bagel Bite Tortilla Pinwheels are creamy inside with a buttery, crispy tortilla layer on the outside. They are especially convenient for busy school mornings and afternoon snacking.
Start by spreading a generous layer of cream cheese over a large flour tortilla. Sprinkle Everything Bagel seasoning evenly over the cream cheese for extra flavor and texture. This popular seasoning blend usually contains sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried garlic, dried onion, and salt.
Once the tortilla is seasoned, roll it tightly into a log. Slice the rolled tortilla into small pinwheels that are easy to cook and serve.
Melt a small amount of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place the pinwheels into the skillet and cook them, turning them frequently, until both sides become golden brown and wonderfully crispy.
