Easy Healthy Bagels
A great healthy take on a common breakfast item. I usually make a double batch in a variety of flavors. Then I use the bottoms of the everything bagels for pizza crusts.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Organic Greek yogurt
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1 cup Ground rolled oats
- 2 tsp Baking powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 Egg separated
- Your choice of mix-ins or toppings ie: everything bagel seasoning, cinnamon and raisins, chocolate chips, blueberries
- Flour for dusting work surface
Notes
-
Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with a silicone baking mat.
-
In a medium bowl combine the flours, baking powder and salt and mix well. Add the egg yolk and Greek yogurt and mix until combined. It will become small crumbles.
-
Lightly dust flour on a work surface and remove dough from the bowl, knead the dough a few times until it is not too sticky.
-
Divide the dough into 6 equal balls. Roll each ball into thick ropes and join the ends to form bagels. (Or you can make a ball, flatten, and poke a hole in the center with your finger and lightly stretch).
-
If you want to add mix-ins like cinnamon and raisins, add those in while forming the dough into bagel shapes.
-
Brush the tops with egg wash.
-
Optional: Sprinkle both sides with seasoning of your choice, like Everything Bagel seasoning.
-
Bake for 25 minutes. Let cool before cutting. You may like to toast a bit before eating.
Recipe Notes
For a gluten-free recipe, substitute whole wheat flour with a almond flour.
Plain bagels also make a great dough for bagel pizzas!
