I have been having fun finding new ways to make foods that I haven't been able to enjoy in over a year. I didn't realize I was even missing a simple bagel until I came across this one. I gave it a try and have been making these ever since. I usually make a big batch, slice them and freeze them. This way I have them on hand for an outing or when the family is eating a delicious treat I am unable to indulge in.
The first couple of times I made this I struggled with the dough being super sticky and then I started letting it sit in a bowl with a towel over it for a little while. It begins to firm up and becomes less sticky.
Ingredients Greek Yogurt Bagels - Egg Free
Each recipe makes 4 bagels and I have been tripling the below ingredients
(Triple batch in parenthesis)
1 cup plain Greek Yogurt (3 cups)
1 cup flour (3 cups) - I use Bob Red Mills Semolina Flour
2 tsp baking powder (6 tsp)
3/4 tsp salt (2 1/4 tsp)
Directions
Mix all ingredients well, kneading to combine.
If desired you can fold in toppings such as; Chocolate chips, brown sugar and cinnamon, etc.
I put a towel of bowl and let sit for about 30 mins but you may find you don't need to do that based on the flour you chose to use.
Divide dough into 4 pieces (for a single batch recipe, 12 for a triple)
Roll into ball. Push your finger through the middle to create a hole and lay on parchment-lined cookie sheet.
Before baking I give each one a little spray of coconut oil and a light sprinkle of salt. Or you can do an egg white wash
Bake at 375 for 25 minutes.
Allow to cool before serving.
Enjoy Greek Yogurt Bagels - Egg Free. Then slice and toast well just like a regular bagel!
Store in a ziplock bag in the refrigerator or freezer (like I do)
