Ingredients

1 cup + 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour (plus extra for dusting)

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup Greek yogurt (any fat percentage)

1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Everything bagel seasoning, sesame seeds, onion flakes, or poppy seeds (optional toppings)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Add Greek yogurt and stir until a rough dough forms. Knead by hand about 20 times until smooth (slightly tacky but not sticky).
  4. Cover and let dough rest for 10 minutes.
  5. Lightly flour a counter, shape dough into a log, and cut into 4 equal pieces.
  6. Roll each piece into a rope, form into a circle, and pinch ends together to shape a bagel.
  7. Place on prepared sheet, brush tops with egg wash, and sprinkle with desired toppings.
  8. Bake for 25 minutes until golden brown and puffed.
  9. Remove and let rest 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Gluten-Free: Use 1:1 gluten-free flour; dough will be less stretchy.
  • Flavor: Add garlic powder, rosemary, or shredded cheese to dough.
  • Sweet: Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar instead of savory toppings.
  • Mini Bagels: Divide dough into 8 pieces and bake slightly less time.
  • Dairy-Free: Use plant-based Greek-style yogurt.
  • Storage: Keep in airtight container 3–4 days, freeze up to 3 months. Toast before serving for best texture.
