Ingredients

Greek Yogurt Bagels

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cup greek yogurt
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • pinch sea salt

Topping

Cottage Cheese Bagels

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • pinch sea salt

Instructions

Protein Bagels with Greek Yogurt

  • Add flour, salt and baking powder to a medium bowl and whisk to combine.
  • Fold in greek yogurt. Start with a spatula until the greek yogurt is "mostly" incorporated then use your hands to work the dough until soft and uniform. Dough should not be sticky, if so add 1/2 tbsp of flour. This process should not take more than 3-5 minutes.
  • Add a bit of flour to your working surface, then roll the dough out to make a "loaf" from there cut into four equal parts
  • Roll out each individual dough into a "rope" then attach the ends to make a circle, leaving plenty of open space in the middle for the bagel hole being mindful that the bagel will expand while cooking.
