Description
Chewy, golden keto bagels made with almond flour and mozzarella cheese, offering a low-carb and gluten-free alternative perfect for breakfast or sandwiches.
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
Dairy
- 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tbsp cream cheese
Eggs
- 2 large eggs
Instructions
- Melt the Cheeses: In a microwave-safe bowl or over a double boiler, melt the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese together until fully combined and smooth, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
- Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, add the almond flour and baking powder. Pour in the melted cheese mixture and crack in the eggs. Stir thoroughly until a dough forms and is evenly mixed.
- Shape the Bagels: Divide the dough into six equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then shape into bagel rings by poking a hole through the center with your finger, forming a classic bagel shape.
- Bake: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the shaped bagels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 18 minutes or until the bagels turn golden brown and are cooked through.
Notes
- Sprinkle sesame seeds or poppy seeds on top before baking for added texture and flavor.
- Allow the bagels to cool slightly before slicing to prevent crumbling.
- These bagels store well in an airtight container and can be reheated in a toaster or oven.
- To keep a keto-friendly profile, avoid high-carb toppings and pair with low-carb fillings.
