How long can bagels stay in the fridge and why?

Best Answers

Depends. If you make them at home (and homemade bagels are amazingly delicious), they will probably last a day or less before they start going stale. I allow my bagels to cool, and then freeze them. read more

Freshly baked bagels should ideally not be refrigerated as bagels will dry out and become stale faster than at room temperature. If you must refrigerate freshly baked bagels (eg, due to a lack of pantry storage space or hot, humid room conditions), the bagels will typically last for only about a day before getting stale. read more

My experience is that if you keep the bagels in a paper bag that absorbs some of their immediate post-baking moisture, and then keep that closely covered in a closed plastic bag, at room temperature, the bagels may last almost a week. read more
