Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- 2 teaspoons natural baking powder
- 2 tablespoons psyllium husk powder
- 3 large eggs
- 4 ounces plant-based (natural) cream cheese
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Optional Toppings
- Sesame seeds (natural) or poppy seeds (natural)
Optional Variations
- Chopped rosemary, thyme, or oregano for herb-infused bagels
- Garlic powder, onion powder, sesame seeds (natural), and poppy seeds (natural) for everything bagel style
- Shredded plant-based cheddar (natural) for cheesy bagels
- Cinnamon and natural vanilla extract (natural) for sweet cinnamon bagels
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, natural baking powder, and psyllium husk powder. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, plant-based (natural) cream cheese, and apple cider vinegar until smooth. Slowly mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until a slightly sticky dough forms that holds together well.
- Shape Your Bagels: Divide the dough into 4 to 6 equal portions depending on the desired size. Roll each portion into a 6-inch rope, then connect the ends carefully to form the classic bagel shape. Place the shaped bagels on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with optional sesame or poppy seeds if desired.
- Bake to Perfection: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the bagels for 25 to 30 minutes until they are golden brown and firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and cool completely on a wire rack.
- Enjoy or Store: Once cooled, slice the bagels horizontally and add your favorite toppings. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days, refrigerate for up to a week, or freeze for up to three months separated by parchment paper.
Notes
- Use fresh psyllium husk powder for best texture as older powder can dry the dough.
- Mix the dough only until combined to keep bagels tender and fluffy.
- Seal the ends tightly when forming bagels to help them hold their shape.
- Allow bagels to cool fully before slicing to prevent crumbling.
- Try moist toppings like plant-based (natural) cream cheese or smashed avocado for added flavor and moisture.
