                      \ud83e\uddc2 Egg wash hack \u2013 Brush with beaten egg for glossy, golden tops.
                      \ud83c\udf36 Spice it up \u2013 Add chili flakes, za\u2019atar, or cinnamon sugar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      \ud83c\udf89 Game day \u2013 Everything bagel bites with beer.
                      \ud83c\udf6b Sweet craving \u2013 Nutella pinwheels + coffee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
