Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the bagels
  • 1 cup self-rising flour Regular or gluten-free
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt Thick, plain, nonfat or low fat
  • 1 large egg white For brushing; whole egg is fine too
  • ½ teaspoon salt Kosher or table salt
  • as needed spray Cooking spray or oil
  • to taste Toppings (sesame, everything bagel seasoning, poppyseeds) Optional
  • 1 scoop protein powder Optional, unflavored or vanilla whey for added protein

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, mix the self-rising flour and salt together.
  2. Add the Greek yogurt and stir until combined. Expect it to be sticky.
  3. Use your hands to bring the mixture into a dough. Flour your hands if necessary.
  4. Divide the dough into 4 equal chunks and roll each into a thick rope, then shape into bagels.
  5. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Place the bagels on the tray, brush with egg white, and sprinkle toppings.
  6. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 22 minutes, or until golden brown.
  7. Optionally, use the broiler for an extra-crispy crust in the last few minutes.

Notes

These bagels store well and can be frozen. Slice before freezing for easier toasting later.
