EVERYTHING BAGEL PANZANELLA SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Add the bagel cubes to a rimmed baking sheet and toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Bake until the bread is toasted, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, add the vinegar, mustard, garlic, shallot, the remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper to a large serving bowl and whisk to combine. Add the tomatoes, fennel and onion. Toss to coat everything in the dressing and let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
• Once the bread is slightly cooled and the vegetables have marinated in the dressing, add the cucumber, basil and mozzarella pearls and reserved fennel fronds. Toss to combine.

EVERYTHING BAGEL RUGELACH

Steps:

• In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together butter and sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add cream cheese and continue mixing, 2 minutes more, scraping down sides of bowl as necessary. Reduce speed to low and add flour, salt, and pepper. Mix until just incorporated.
• Divide dough in half and form into two discs. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and chill, at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl stir together poppy seeds, sesame seeds, onion flakes, garlic flakes, and salt and set aside. In a medium bowl, stir together cream cheese, egg, and 1⁄2 sliced scallions and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Remove chilled dough from refrigerator and allow to temper, 15-30 minutes. Unwrap first disc and transfer to a lightly floured work surface. Lightly flour surface of dough and, using a floured rolling pin, roll out dough to an approximately 14" diameter circle. Using a 12" round cake pan or large bowl as a guide, trim edges of dough to form a neat circle. Repeat with remaining dough.
• Divide cream cheese mixture between the two circles and spread into a thin layer over each. Sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning and scatter remaining scallions on top. Using a pizza cutter, divide each circle into 16 wedges. Starting with the wide edge, roll each wedge into a crescent shape and transfer to two parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing about 2" apart. Transfer cookies to refrigerator and chill, 45 minutes to an hour.
• In a small bowl, whisk together egg and 1 t. water. Remove cookies from refrigerator and brush lightly with egg wash. Sprinkle with additional everything bagel seasoning and bake, rotating once halfway through, until golden, 25-30 minutes. Allow to cool slightly on baking sheets, 10 minutes, before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
