  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt or dairy-free yogurt
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash, optional)
  • Optional toppings: sesame seeds, poppy seeds, everything bagel seasoning, or shredded cheese

Instructions

  3. Add yogurt and stir until a shaggy dough forms.
  4. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and knead gently until smooth.
  5. Divide into 4–6 portions. Roll each into a log and shape into a circle, pinching ends to seal.
  6. Place bagels on prepared baking sheet.
  7. Brush with egg wash (if using) and sprinkle with desired toppings.
  8. Bake 25–30 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.

Notes

Use dairy-free yogurt and skip egg wash for a vegan version.Dough may be sticky—lightly flour hands and surface when shaping.Add-ins like raisins, cinnamon, herbs, or dairy-free cheese can customize flavor.Best eaten fresh, but can be toasted for enhanced flavor and texture.For longer storage, freeze cooled bagels for up to 1 month.
