Greek Yogurt Bagels
Tender, slightly tangy Greek yogurt bagels that are perfect for toasting and enjoying with your favorite fall spreads.
Ingredients
Bagel Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat for best texture)
- 1.5-2 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1-2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional) for a touch of fall sweetness
- 1 large egg (for egg wash; optional)
- to taste Sesame seeds, everything seasoning, or cinnamon sugar for topping
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Stir in the Greek yogurt and honey until a shaggy dough forms. If the dough is very sticky, add up to 1/2 cup more flour, a little at a time, until it’s workable but still soft.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for 1–2 minutes — just until smooth.
- Divide the dough into six even pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then poke a hole through the center with your thumb and gently stretch to create a ring. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Beat the egg and brush lightly over the tops if using; sprinkle on toppings.
- Bake for 18–22 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through. Let cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Slice and toast, then top with softened butter, cream cheese, or your favorite fall spreads.
Notes
To avoid dense dough, measure flour correctly by spooning it into your measuring cup and leveling it off. Use full-fat Greek yogurt for richer flavor. For a chewier bagel, boiling for 30 seconds per side in simmering water with a splash of honey before baking is optional.
