Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

Method
 

  1. Preheat & Prep – Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix the Dough – In a large bowl, combine Greek yogurt, flour, and baking powder. Stir with a spoon, then use your hands to form a dough.
  3. Shape the Bagels – Divide the dough into four equal pieces. Roll each into a ball, poke a hole in the center, and shape into a bagel. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.

  • Customize flavors by mixing herbs or cheese into the dough.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
