Description

These Easy High Protein Bagels are made with just five simple ingredients, featuring Greek yogurt for added protein and fluffiness. Perfect for a quick homemade breakfast or snack, these bagels are soft, chewy, and loaded with your favorite toppings.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (plus ¼ cup for shaping)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt (or more to taste)

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 cups plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 large egg (beaten)

Toppings

  • 1 tablespoon everything but the bagel seasoning (or your favorite toppings)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line half a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside to prepare for baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and kosher salt. Stir to evenly distribute all dry ingredients.
  3. Add Yogurt and Form Dough: Add the plain Greek yogurt to the dry mixture and stir until it forms a shaggy, rough dough.
  4. Knead Dough: Transfer the dough onto a clean, lightly floured surface. Knead until it becomes smooth and not sticky, about 5 minutes. Add up to an extra ¼ cup of flour as needed to prevent stickiness.
  5. Shape Bagels: Divide the kneaded dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each piece into a 6-inch long rope and pinch the ends together firmly to form a classic bagel shape.
  6. Prepare for Baking: Place the shaped bagels onto the prepared parchment-lined cookie sheet. Brush the tops with the beaten egg to help toppings stick and give a glossy finish.
  7. Add Toppings: Sprinkle your favorite bagel toppings such as everything but the bagel seasoning evenly over each bagel.
  8. Bake: Bake the bagels on the middle rack for 23-25 minutes or until they turn golden brown and cooked through.
  9. Cool and Serve: Remove the bagels from the oven and let them cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and enjoying.

Notes

  • To ensure the dough isn’t sticky, add flour gradually during kneading.
  • You can customize toppings with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or coarse sea salt instead of everything bagel seasoning.
  • These bagels do not require boiling, making them quicker and easier to prepare than traditional bagels.
  • Allow the bagels to cool fully for the best texture when slicing.
