Below is a list of the ingredients you’ll need to gather to make this recipe, why you need them, and possible substitutions. Scroll all the way down for the full recipe card with measurements.
Jump- Cream Cheese – Bring it out to room temperature. It needs to be soft enough to mix.
- Sour Cream – I usually use full-fat sour cream for consistency but use whatever you prefer.

How to make Everything Bagel Dip
This section shows you how to make this recipe, with process photos showing the steps to help you visualize it. For full instructions, including amounts and temperatures, see the recipe card below.
Jump- Step One: Grab a medium mixing bowl and use an electric mixer to whip up the cream cheese until it’s just starting to become fluffy. This should be about 2 minutes.
- Step Two: Stir in the sour cream and everything bagel seasoning. Adding sour cream will help to lighten up the thick cream cheese.
- Step Three: I prefer to serve it cold, so I usually pop it in the fridge at this point. Then, I will sprinkle with a bit more seasoning just before serving.
What to serve with Everything Seasoning Dip
Serve this dip in a pumpernickel boule for extra presentation. You can cut out the middle and use the inner pieces for dipping!
You can also use any type of bread you want. Rye, sourdough, or any piece of artisan loaf would be great.
Chips, crackers, pretzel chips, soft pretzels, bagel chips, and veggies are always a good choice. I love to dip carrots in it. You could also use celery, cucumbers, radish, bell peppers, broccoli florets, etc.
- Make this dip up to 3 days ahead. Keep it refrigerated with a piece of plastic wrap to cover. Stir it before serving.
- Instead of sour cream, you could add some protein (& lose some calories) by using plain Greek yogurt.
- Ramp it up with some heat. Throw in some diced jalapenos.
- Add some cooked bacon crumbles for added flavor.
- Double or triple the recipe to serve a crowd. You could also make more than you need just because you want to keep some for yourself!
How to reheat and store Everything Bagel Dip
How to store leftovers
