Naturally Sweet Cinnamon Raisin Bagel

For our “Cinnamon Raisin Bagel,” we focus on a restrained, craveable sweetness that feels baked-in rather than sugary. The first impression is a gentle malted aroma, followed by the caramelized fructose notes from oven-baked raisins—two layers of sweetness that weave together smoothly, creating a warm, rounded fragrance with real bakery character.
Texture is where this bagel truly delivers. We keep the classic chew and bounce you expect: lightly browned on the outside, dense and satisfying inside without turning dry. As you chew, the grain-forward malt sweetness grows more pronounced, while the raisins bring not just sweetness, but a subtly toasted, almost caramel finish that keeps the flavor balanced and interesting.
It’s designed to fit everyday eating, not just occasional indulgence. Enjoy it straight from the bag for a convenient breakfast, or warm it slightly to amplify the aroma before spreading butter, cream cheese, or nut butter. It also works surprisingly well in savory builds—think ham, cheese, or egg—for a layered sweet-and-salty contrast. Our goal is a bagel that feels comforting, dependable, and easy to reach for again and again.
