Ingredients

Scale

1 cup gluten-free flour

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, unsweetened)

1½ tsp baking powder

Optional: everything bagel seasoning, sesame seeds, or cinnamon sugar for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

  • Mix the dough: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup gluten-free flour and 1½ tsp baking powder. Add 1 cup Greek yogurt and stir until a sticky dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a teaspoon of yogurt at a time until it comes together.

  • Shape the bagels: Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then gently press your finger through the center to form a bagel shape. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.

  • Add toppings (optional): Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning, sesame seeds, or cinnamon sugar on top for extra flavor. Press lightly so they stick.

  • Bake: Place the bagels in the oven and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until they are lightly golden and firm to the touch.

  • Cool slightly & enjoy: Let the bagels cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
