Few breakfast dishes are as iconic as the smoked salmon bagel. Smokier than lox and more elegant than a simple spread of cream cheese, this open-faced breakfast sammy is as beautiful as it is delicious. Loaded with color, texture, and contrast, you’ll want to snap a photo before taking the first bite.

This brunch staple gets the keto treatment in our revamped recipe. To make things lower-carb and dairy-free, we swapped cream cheese for Primal Kitchen Mayo with Avocado Oil (you can also use our Real Whipped Tangy Dressing & Spread instead) and made keto-friendly bagels a hearty base. Topped with tender salmon, creamy mayo or whip, sliced red onion, capers, chives, and cracked pepper, it's casual enough for a weekday meal and elegant enough for a fancy brunch!
