Easy homemade bagels: Protein-packed recipe with two ingredients
Bagels have gained popularity, and now you can make them at home with just two ingredients. The recipe shared by nutritionist Emily English is simple and quick to execute.
Bagels have become extremely popular; they are no longer just associated with New York, where they can be found in many stores. However, traditional bagel baking is time-consuming. If we decide to make them like pretzels, in addition to baking, dough steaming is involved. Nutritionist Emily English shared a recipe for two-ingredient bagels that are high in protein, look like real bagels, and are simply delicious.
Recipe for bagels with Greek yogurt
The secret of this recipe is Greek yogurt, which replaces traditional dough. Simply mix flour with yogurt until a dough forms. If the mixture is too thin, you can add more flour. After forming the bagels, brush them with egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake the bagels in the oven for about 25 minutes. While they are not as fluffy as traditional ones, they are a convenient alternative. You can double the recipe to make eight bagels.
How to prepare bagels step by step
- In a bowl, combine the flour and yogurt, add a pinch of salt, and mix with a fork until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough for 30 seconds to a minute until smooth.
- Divide into four parts, form rolls, and connect the ends.
- Brush with egg, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and bake at 375°F for 20-25 minutes.
The bagels can be eaten immediately or frozen for later. It's a simple way to make homemade bread that is quick to prepare and high in protein. The recipe comes from the "Express" website.
