Description

Simple yeast‑free bagels made with Greek yogurt for a protein‑packed breakfast.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup + 3 Tbsp all‑purpose flour (about 5.6 oz)
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (any fat %)
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • Optional toppings: everything bagel seasoning, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried onion flakes


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 °F and line a baking sheet with parchment.
  2. In a bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Add Greek yogurt and stir until a shaggy dough forms, then knead by hand until smooth (~20 turns).
  4. Divide dough into 4 equal pieces; shape each into a rope and form a ring.
  5. Place bagels on baking sheet, brush with beaten egg, and add toppings.
  6. Bake for 25 minutes or until golden and puffy.
  7. Let cool 15 minutes before slicing.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3‑4 days or freeze up to 3 months.
  • If dough is sticky, add flour by the tablespoon until manageable.
  • For egg‑free option, brush with water or melted butter instead of egg wash.
  • Use self‑rising flour: omit baking powder and salt.
  • You can substitute up to half the flour with whole wheat or gluten‑free flour.
