Equipment

Mixing bowls
Microwave-safe bowl
Baking sheet
Parchment paper or silicone baking mat
Measuring cups and spoons
Oven

Ingredients

2 cups almond flour 224g
1 tablespoon baking powder 14g
2 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese 225g
2 ounces cream cheese 56g
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon psyllium husk powder optional for added fiber, 5g
Sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or everything bagel seasoning for topping

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the almond flour and baking powder. Mix well to ensure the baking powder is evenly distributed.
In a separate, microwave-safe bowl, add the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave for 90 seconds, stopping to stir halfway through. The cheese should be completely melted and easy to stir.
Add the melted cheese mixture to the almond flour mixture. Then, crack the eggs into the bowl and add psyllium husk powder if using. Mix thoroughly until you have a uniform dough. It will be sticky, but kneading with wet hands can help manage this.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a smooth ball, then press a finger through the center to form a bagel shape with a hole in the middle.
Place the formed bagels onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle your choice of seeds or seasoning on top of each bagel, gently pressing them in to stick.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the bagels are golden and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

If you don't have a microwave, you can melt the cheese in a double boiler on the stove.

Wetting your hands before handling the dough can prevent sticking.

These bagels can be sliced and toasted for a crispier texture.

Store leftover bagels in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
