The base of these bagels are made with flour. You can use whole-wheat or all purpose flour. A 1:1 gluten free flour unfortunately won’t work the same.
Baking powder is going to help these bagels rise during baking time.
Salt helps balance out all the flavors.
Greek yogurt is going to also help these bagels rise during baking time while providing a soft, fluffy texture. You can also use non-dairy yogurt to make these vegan.
After these bagels are assembled, they are brushed with an egg wash and then sprinkled with everything but the bagel seasoning. Feel free to use oil instead of an egg wash to make these vegan and sub for your favorite seasoning.

TWO: Next, add in the greek yogurt and mix with a spatula until a dough starts to form. You may need to get in there and use your hands to ensure all the ingredients are well incorporated.
THREE: Roll the dough into a ball and leave it in the mixing bowl. Cover with a damp towel and let it rest for 10 minutes.
FOUR: When ready, bring the dough out onto a floured surface and knead once more. Roll it back into a ball and then cut it into 4 equal parts. Roll each section into a ball and then poke your finger in the middle to create a hole in the center.
FIVE: Add the bagels to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Then, brush with the egg wash and season with the everything but the bagel seasoning. Place in the oven to bake for 25-28 minutes.
SIX: Remove from oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing into and serving.

Hi Hannah,
I saw this recipe on instagram and really wanted to try it. When I made the dough, it stayed sticky for some reason and I couldn’t get it to a nice dough. I used the measurements as discriped, but it didn’t work. Do you have any idea why the dough woudn’t form?
Hi Zoe! You can add more flour in as needed. Dough will be slightly sticky, but it still should be workable. Feel free to add in flour as needed and dust your hands with flour as well when working it.
Can I also use chickpea flour?
I have not tested it with chickpea flour so i can’t say for sure.
Can I use full fat Greek Yogurt
Yes, absolutely!
I made the bagelsbut the hole disappeared! However, I uses Eureka plain flour, Woolworths has the sprinkle and they worked and are delicious.
i’m glad it worked out! they do rise a ton during baking, so I recommend making the hole larger than you expect!
If I am doubling the recipe, should I also double the time to proof?
Hi there, no need. Same amount of time will suffice! However, if you did rest it longer that’s no prob. It won’t make or break it.
