After a recent trip to New York City, I’ve been seriously craving a good bagel. And while Boston has a few bagel spots that almost nail that perfect combination of a crisp exterior and fluffy interior, they often come with long lines and a morning of planning — neither of which I’m up for.

Enter: Just Bagels, an NYC-based company delivering authentic, kettle-boiled bagels straight to your doorstep. Available online at QVC, these bagels have made all the difference. “It was love at first bite when I tried them at QVC’s Foodie Fest,” says commerce editorial assistant Morgan. “With most bagels I need a thick layer of cream cheese, but the flavor here was so bold and satisfying that it wasn’t even necessary.”

Recently, Just Bagels’ Challah bagels caught my attention. They’re slightly smaller than traditional bagels, but pack just as much flavor and a dreamy, fluffy texture you’ll love. And the best part? They’re currently on sale at QVC — so you can skip the line and bring a little NYC magic to your morning routine.

What Are the Just Bagels NYC Challah Bagels?

Just Bagels’ NYC Challah Bagels are made from challah bread, a fluffy, soft, slightly sweet bread that’s rich and golden-brown. It took Just Bagels two years to perfect this unique style of bagel, and reviewers rave about their “delicious” taste. Shipped fresh in packs of 24, you can mix and match flavors: 12 each of plain and cinnamon raisin, plain and everything challah, or cinnamon raisin and everything challah.

Keep in mind, these bagels should be frozen as soon as they arrive. Because they are made with high-quality ingredients and no preservatives, they can spoil quickly if left out. The good news? Just pop them in the microwave, toaster oven, air fryer, or any warming device, and they’ll be ready to enjoy in no time!
