Ingredients

Bagel Dough

  • 2 cups (183 g) blanched superfine almond flour
  • 1 cup (233 g) nonfat plain Greek yogurt

Toppings

  • 1 egg, optional, for egg wash
  • everything bagel seasoning, or other seasonings

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (191°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper (or a silicone baking mat).
  • Add almond flour and yogurt to a large mixing bowl. Stir with spatula until almond flour is fully incorporated into the yogurt. Knead the mixture (by hand or using the spatula), for about 3 minutes or until the mixture because a dough that you can roll and work with.
  • Divide the dough into two pieces and roll each into a 6-inch log. Evenly cut each log into 3 pieces (so you will have a total of 6 pieces).
  • Take one piece and roll out long enough so the two ends can meet and form a circle. Place onto prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough, spacing bagels at least 1 inch apart.
  • If adding egg wash, beat egg with whisk in a small bowl. Then brush beaten egg mixture over the surface of each of the bagels.
  • Sprinkle surface of the bagels with everything bagel seasoning.
  • Bake bagels for about 20 minutes or until golden brown and cooked.

Notes

  • This recipe is one I've seen circulating for a while. I don't know the original source. The earliest post I've seen of it is from My Low Carb Recipes Journey. I believe whoever came up with it was inspired by the popular weight watchers' 2 ingredient bagels which uses just self-rising flour and Greek yogurt.
  • This recipe makes mini bagels. They are not full sized bagels. Because the bagels are made of mainly almond flour, they are quite high in calories and fat even with their small size. You can of course make them bigger if you want.
  • The egg wash is optional. It won't change the taste or texture of the bagels but it does add color to them.
  • I highly recommend using everything bagel seasoning or some other similar bagel seasoning so that these will taste more like bagels. I like to add some table salt and a no salt everything bagel seasoning (so I can control how much salt is on there).
  • These bagels do not have the same texture as regular bagels. See the texture section of the post for more details.
  • Use a thick Greek yogurt like Fage or Kirkland brand because otherwise your dough will be too wet to work with.
  • If you find your dough is too wet even after kneading, add a little more almond flour. If your dough breaks when you try to form a circle, it is likely too dry and you can add a little more yogurt.
  • When measuring out the almond flour, spoon it into the measuring cup and then level off with a knife.
  • Nutrition estimate is for the bagel dough without any egg wash or seasoning.
