Make simple, high-protein bagels using just two main ingredients: Greek yogurt and self-rising flour. This recipe is quick and perfect for a healthy breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup plain, non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup self-rising flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 1 egg white, lightly beaten (for egg wash)
  • Optional toppings: Everything bagel seasoning, sesame seeds, poppy seeds

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and self-rising flour. Mix with a spatula until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough for about 5 to 7 minutes until it becomes smooth and no longer sticky. If the dough is too sticky, add a small amount of extra flour, one tablespoon at a time.
  4. Divide the dough into four equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rope about 8 inches long.
  5. Form each rope into a bagel shape by bringing the ends together and pinching them firmly to seal.
  6. Place the formed bagels on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Brush the tops of the bagels lightly with the beaten egg white. Sprinkle with your desired toppings, if using.
  8. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the bagels are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped.
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use thick, plain Greek yogurt for the best dough consistency. Avoid thinner, watery yogurt.
  • If you do not have self-rising flour, you can make your own by mixing 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
  • These bagels are best eaten the day they are made for the fluffiest texture.
