Description
These quick, high-protein bagels use Greek yogurt and self-rising flour for a fluffy, golden texture. With a simple egg wash, they offer a clean, no-sugar-added alternative to traditional bagels. Perfect for breakfast or a mid-day snack, they’re low-effort and nutrient-dense.
Ingredients
1 cup (245g) Greek yogurt, full-fat for best flavor
1/4 tsp Sriracha Flakes, optional for warmth
1/2 tsp baking powder, optional for faster rise
2 cups self-rising flour
1/2 tsp salt, to control tang and balance
dash of any flour for dusting
1 large egg white, for dough
glass of cold water, optional for egg wash smoothness
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C)
Combine 1 cup Greek yogurt, 2 cups self-rising flour, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp baking powder in a bowl. Mix until crumbly
Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, then divide into 4 equal portions
Roll each portion into a rope, twist once to form a ring, and press ends together to seal
Prepare an egg wash by whisking the reserved egg white with a splash of water
Place the shaped bagels on a parchment-lined baking sheet, brush with egg wash, and bake for 25 minutes
Cool on a wire rack before serving, optionally dust with sesame seeds or drizzle with honey
Notes
Substitute plain Greek yogurt as the only rising agent if baking powder is omitted
Add 1 tsp sugar to the dough for a slight sweetener (not required for flavor)
Bagels freeze well, up to 2 months
Use NY-style egg wash of 1 egg white + 1/2 tsp water for standard coating
