Ingredients

  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • 2 cups Greek yogurt
  • 1 egg
  • pinch salt
  • 3 tablespoons toppings of choice poppy seeds, everything bagel spice, sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375˚F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine flour and Greek yogurt. Stir with a wooden spoon until a coarse, shaggy dough forms. Scrape the dough onto a floured surface, then knead by hand for 2 to 3 minutes, or until a smooth round of dough forms. Flatten into a disc, cover with a towel and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Cut into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece of dough into a ball, then cover again and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Lightly coat your hands in flour. Using your thumb, make a hole in the center of each ball of dough about 1 ½ -inch wide, pulling on the outer edge of the dough as you turn it around your thumb to form an evenly shaped bagel. Place on prepared baking sheet and repeat with remaining dough.
  • Lightly beat the egg with a pinch of salt. Brush the tops of the bagels with egg wash, then sprinkle with desired toppings, if using.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown on top.

Notes

Storage: Once your bagels have cooled down, pop them into an airtight container or a resealable plastic bag. This will keep them fresh and prevent them from spoiling or getting too stale. They will last up to 5 days in the fridge. When you're ready for round two with your bagels, you've got options! The toaster works great for a crispy edge, or if they are a bit stale, you can wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 20 seconds. They'll come out all warm and soft.
Freezing: You can definitely freeze them! Once they're cool, wrap each bagel individually in plastic wrap and then place them all in a big freezer bag. They'll be good to go for up to 2 months. When you're craving one, just pull it out of the freezer and toss it straight into the toaster or the microwave.
