Craving fresh bagels but short on time? These bagels are made with just a few ingredients, including Greek yogurt. Ready in under an hour, they may not be the traditional NYC bagel, but they hit the spot for a homemade treat.
Here’s what you need:
1 ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
⅔ cup 2% fat plain Greek yogurt
1 egg white or 1 tablespoon egg white substitute
Optional for topping: Sesame seeds, everything bagel seasoning, cinnamon sugar
Here’s what you do:
1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.
2. In a large bowl, gently combine flour, baking soda and salt.
3. Add Greek yogurt and stir until the mixture turns into a dough. I like to use my hands to integrate everything together while ensuring I’m not overmixing.
4. Divide dough into four equal balls. If you have a food scale you can make sure they’re equal – each of my dough balls weighs about 100 grams.
5. Poke a finger through the center of the ball of dough, then use 2 fingers to widen the hole to about 1 to 2 inches. Do this for each dough ball to shape your bagels.
6. Brush each bagel with your egg white, and then add optional toppings.
7. Bake on a Silpat or parchment-lined baking sheet for 23-25 minutes. Cool and then enjoy!
