Description
A simple, high-protein bagel recipe that’s ready in just 40 minutes! These homemade bagels are soft, chewy, and require no yeast—perfect for a quick and satisfying breakfast or snack.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (or substitute with whole wheat flour)
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (thick consistency recommended)
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- Optional toppings: Everything bagel seasoning, cinnamon, shredded cheese, garlic & herbs, chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat & Prep: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. If making cinnamon bagels, add 2 tsp cinnamon.
- Incorporate Yogurt: Stir in Greek yogurt using a spatula until a dough forms. Then, knead it together with your hands.
- Shape the Bagels: Lightly flour a work surface. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Roll each into a ball, slightly flatten, and create a hole in the center using a spoon handle or by rolling into a log and connecting the ends.
- Egg Wash & Toppings: Whisk the egg and brush each bagel with it. Sprinkle with your preferred toppings.
- Bake: Arrange bagels on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 22-25 minutes, until golden brown on top.
- Cool & Serve: Let them cool before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- If the dough is too sticky, sprinkle in extra flour.
- Mixing with your hands is quicker than using a spatula.
- Store on the counter for 2 days, in the fridge for 1 week, or freeze for up to 2 months.
