Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup high-protein flour Use gluten-free flour for a gluten-free version.
- ½ cup Greek yogurt Can be substituted with dairy-free yogurt for lactose intolerance.
- ¼ cup water Adjust as necessary for dough consistency.
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ cup shredded cheese Use low-fat cheese for a lighter option.
Instructions
Preparation
- Gather all the ingredients mentioned above. Measure them out accurately to ensure the best results. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) as you prepare the dough.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the high-protein flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix them together well until there are no clumps.
- Gradually add Greek yogurt and water into the mixture, stirring until fully combined.
- Transfer the mixture to a floured surface and begin kneading the dough for about 3–5 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Divide the dough into small, equal portions, roll each piece into a ball, and poke a hole in the center of each ball, gently stretching it to shape it into a bagel.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place each shaped bagel on the sheet, spacing them out evenly.
Baking
- Sprinkle shredded cheese generously on top of each bagel bite.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the bagel bites reach a golden brown color.
- Once baked, let the bagel bites cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serving
- Serve warm or at room temperature with your favorite dips.
Notes
Store the bagel bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for later use. Reheat in a microwave or toaster oven.
