Equipment

Ingredients

2 cups bread flour recommended -or- all purpose flour -or- 4 cups almond flour
4 teaspoon baking powder
1 ½ teaspoon salt
2 cups plain Greek Yogurt
1 egg

Toppings

everything bagel seasoning or try dried onions, poppyseeds, sesame seed, salt, etc.!

Instructions

Mix dry ingredients. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt.
Add Greek yogurt. Blend just until lumpy dough forms. *Do not over mix the dough or this may result in flat bagels*
Divide dough into 8 equal parts using a bench scraper or large knife.
Shape dough. Grab the first chunk of dough and roll it around using your hands, pressing it together to compact it.
Poke a hole in the center and gently squeeze the dough all the way around to enlarge the circle. The hole in the center should be about 2" wide.
Add to baking sheet. Place bagel-shaped dough onto a lined, lightly floured baking pan. Repeat until all bagels are formed and placed onto the baking sheet, leaving space between each so they have room to expand. I put four bagels on each baking sheet.
Brush with egg wash. In a small bowl or cup, beat the egg then brush it onto each bagel.
Add seasonings like everything bagel blend or whatever you prefer.
Bake on the upper rack at 400˚ in preheated oven for 20 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
Remove from oven and cool for about 5 minutes.

Notes

Flour your hands if dough is too sticky to work with.
Top with any seasonings you'd like. You can find Everything Bagel seasoning on Amazon. or at most grocery stores.
You can mix extras like cheese or dried fruit (dried onion, cranberries, blueberries, raisins, cinnamon sugar, etc.) right into the dough before baking to create different flavors of bagels.
You can use all almond flour, or substitute part of the bread flour. Just keep in mind, if using almond flour, you need to double the amount. This also changes the density of the bagel.
