Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the bagels into thin, even rounds, about 1/8-inch thick. Lay the slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, dried oregano, dried basil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. If using Parmesan cheese, set it aside for later.
Brush the olive oil mixture evenly onto both sides of the bagel slices using a pastry brush.
If desired, sprinkle the bagel slices with the grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, flipping the bagel slices halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the bagel chips from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. They will crisp up further as they cool.
Once cooled, transfer the bagel chips to an airtight container for storage. Enjoy them on their own or pair them with your favorite dips!
