How Many Calories Are in a Bagel?

A supermarket bagel is around 280 calories. A large deli or New York style bagel is closer to 350, roughly the same as five slices of sandwich bread. The spread is where it escalates: a normal deli portion of cream cheese is 2 to 3 tablespoons, which adds 100 to 150 calories.

FAQs

Frequently asked

Is scooping out the middle worth it?

Yes, more than most people expect. Removing the doughy centre takes out 70-100 calories, because you are removing dense bread rather than crust.
