Hey friends!
Are you ready to jazz up your breakfast routine?
Today, I’m excited to share a fantastic recipe for cottage cheese almond flour bagels.
These bagels are super easy to make, packed with protein, and oh-so-delicious!
Perfect for topping with your favorite cream cheese or avocado.
Let’s get started on making some amazing bagels!
Preparation Time | 10-15 minutes |
Cooking Time | 25-30 minutes |
Total Time | 35-45 minutes |
Level of Difficulty | Easy |
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 4 tablespoons coconut flour
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 5 eggs
- Everything but the bagel spice seasoning or else, simply do a mix of black and white sesame seeds, diced/minced or dried garlic, dried onions
Step 1: Blend the Ingredients
Begin by placing all your ingredients (except for the Everything But the Bagel seasoning) into a food processor.
Blend until everything is well combined and the mixture is smooth.
This step is crucial for ensuring an even texture in your bagels.
Step 2: Let the Batter Rest
Once blended, allow the mixture to sit for about 5 minutes.
This resting period helps the batter to thicken slightly, which is the desired consistency for shaping the bagels.
Step 3: Prepare the Donut Pan
While the batter is resting, prepare your donut pan.
Grease it generously with butter to prevent sticking.
Alternatively, you can use a silicone mold, which makes removal much easier.
After greasing, spoon the batter into the well-prepared donut pan, filling each cavity evenly.
Sprinkle your Everything But the Bagel seasoning or any preferred seasonings atop each bagel.
Step 4: Bake the Bagels
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the bagels for 25-30 minutes.
Keep an eye on them as they bake; they should turn a nice golden color when done.
Step 5: Cool and Remove from the Pan
Once baked, allow the bagels to cool completely in the pan.
If you used a non-silicone mold, you might need to gently carve around the edges with a knife and carefully lift each bagel out.
If you used a silicone mold, they should pop out easily.
Step 6: Store the Bagels
To store your bagels, keep them in the refrigerator for up to a week, or place them in an airtight container in the freezer for longer storage.
Enjoy your homemade bagels whenever the craving strikes!
How many does the recipe make?
Around 4-6 Bagels depends on the Size.
these are delicious! I even put them in my waffle maker and they make great waffles!
What can I replace the butter with?
Your recipe intrigued me, and since I miss bagels and breads because I’m following semi-keto diet (significant reduction in carbs)I thought I’d give it a try. SImplicity, thy name is Easy Cottage Cheese Almond Flour Bagels! They’re more cakey than bready, but toasted, they’re great.
A couple of take aways:
– I have silicone donut trays measuring 4″ per mold. You suggest the recipe makes 4 to 6. The magic number when I make them again will be 6. I overloaded with 4 and they flowed out of the mold.
– It was much easier to pipe the dough rather than spoon into the molds.
All in all, a winning recipe!
