Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • 1 tbsp. baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 2 ¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 oz cream cheese
  • 2 large eggs beaten - reserve 1 tablespoon of beaten eggs and set aside
  • 2-3 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning optional

Instructions

  • First preheat your oven to 400F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl add the almond flour, baking powder and xanthan gum. Mix until well combined. 
  • In a microwave safe bowl, add the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave for 30 seconds, remove and stir. Then repeat 2-3 more times until the mozzarella is completely melted. 
  • Next add the almond flour mixture and the beaten eggs to the melted cheese mixture and mix.
  • Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and place on the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Press a finger into the center of each ball and stretch and flatten to form a bagel shape. 
  • Brush the top of each bagel with the remaining beaten egg and sprinkle with the everything bagel seasoning, if using. 
  • Bake for 20-22 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer to a cooling rack.

Notes

  • The bagel dough will be sticky. Use a bit of cold water on your fingers to help you shape the dough.
  • Be sure to save a small amount of the egg to brush on the bagels before baking them.
  • Top the bagels with everything bagel seasoning, sesame seeds, coarse salt, or leave them plain.
  • To store, keep the bagels sealed in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or in the freezer (pre-sliced and individually wrapped) for up to 3 months.
