Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
- In a medium bowl, mix 2 1/2 cups almond flour and 1 tablespoon baking powder. Stir until well combined and set aside.
- Melt the Cheese:
- In a large, microwave-safe bowl, combine 2 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese and 2 oz cubed cream cheese. Microwave on high for 2 minutes, stirring halfway through. Continue to stir until the cheese is completely melted and smooth.
- Combine Ingredients:
- Once the cheese mixture is melted, quickly stir in the almond flour mixture and 2 beaten eggs. Work the ingredients together while the cheese is still warm, kneading with your hands until a cohesive dough forms. Be cautious of the heat, and if necessary, use a spatula or spoon to help combine the dough.
- Shape the Bagels:
- Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then use your fingers to create a hole in the center, forming a bagel shape. Place each formed bagel on the prepared baking sheet.
- Add Toppings:
- Sprinkle the top of each bagel generously with Everything seasoning. This seasoning blend typically includes a mix of sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried garlic, dried onion, and salt.
- Bake the Bagels:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes, or until the bagels are golden brown and cooked through.
- Cool and Serve:
- Allow the bagels to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature.
Tips:
- Cheese Texture: Use pre-shredded mozzarella or hard mozzarella to ensure the dough holds together properly. Fresh mozzarella can be too soft and affect the dough consistency.
- Dough Handling: The dough will be easier to handle when the cheese mixture is still warm. If it cools and becomes too stiff, microwave it briefly to soften it before shaping.
- Storage: Store leftover bagels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage. Reheat in the oven or toaster before serving for best results.
These keto everything bagels are perfect for a low-carb breakfast or snack, offering a delightful savory flavor and satisfying texture! Enjoy them plain or with your favorite keto-friendly spreads.
