Description

These simple 3 Ingredient Protein Bagels are a quick and easy homemade treat perfect for a nutritious breakfast or snack. Made with just self-rising flour, Greek yogurt, and an egg, these bagels are packed with protein and require minimal prep time. Soft on the inside and golden on the outside, they’re a healthier alternative to traditional bagels and ideal for those looking to enjoy a protein-rich baked good.

Ingredients

Scale

Bagel Dough

  • 1 cup self-rising flour
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Combine Flour and Yogurt: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add 1 cup of self-rising flour and 1 cup of Greek yogurt.
  3. Form Dough Base: Stir together the flour and yogurt using a spoon or spatula until the mixture starts forming a dough.
  4. Add Egg: Crack 1 large egg into the dough mixture.
  5. Incorporate Egg: Mix the egg thoroughly into the dough until the mixture is evenly combined and forms a soft dough.
  6. Prepare Work Surface: Lightly flour a clean surface or place a silicone baking mat down to keep the dough from sticking.
  7. Knead Dough: Turn the dough onto the surface and knead gently for 1-2 minutes just until smooth and cohesive.
  8. Divide Dough: Split the dough into 4 equal portions and shape each into a ball.
  9. Shape Bagels: Flatten each dough ball slightly into a disc, then create a hole in the center of each with your fingers to form the bagel shape.
  10. Place on Baking Sheet: Transfer the shaped bagels to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart adequately.
  11. Optional Glaze: Brush the tops with a little water or an egg wash for a golden finish if desired.
  12. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until the bagels turn golden brown on the top.
  13. Cool and Serve: Remove the bagels from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Use self-rising flour which already contains baking powder and salt for best results.
  • You can brush the bagels with egg wash (a beaten egg) for a shiny golden crust.
  • For variation, add herbs or spices to the dough before baking.
  • Enjoy these bagels fresh, or store them in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
  • Reheat bagels briefly in the oven or toaster for a fresh-baked taste.
