Ingredients

Units Scale

200g white flour (1 1/3 cups), plus more for kneading

2 tsp baking powder, make sure it’s fresh so they rise well

1/2 tsp pink himalayan or sea salt

240g (1 cup) thick, non-fat greek yogurt (I used Stonyfield grass-fed 0% greek yogurt)

1 egg, whisked and set aside

Optional for extra protein: 30g collagen (1/4 cup)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt (and collagen if using).
  3. Add the greek yogurt and mix with a spatula until it’s a shaggy dough.
  4. Dump the shaggy dough onto a floured surface and knead together with a floured hand until it’s a smooth ball. The dough should not be sticky, so add a bit more flour if needed, 1-2 Tbsp at a time until no longer sticky. The amount of flour you use will depend on what yogurt you are using.
  5. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes.
  6. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Roll into balls.
  7. Take your thumb and press through the dough ball to create a hole in the center. Then place onto the counter and spin it around your finger to spread it out. You want the hole in each bagel to be about 1.5″-2″, because the bagel expands in the oven.
  8. Place them on the lined baking sheet and brush with the whisked egg for an egg wash.
  9. Bake the bagels for 25-35 minutes, or until med-deep golden brown on top (reference photos). Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes then transfer to a wired rack. I recommend letting them cool completely before slicing, as the texture becomes better as it cools.
  10. To store: Let the bagels cool completely to room temperature first. Then store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and eat within 5 days. You can also store in the freezer for up to 3 months – freeze them individually wrapped and placed in a freezer friendly container. When ready, let thaw at room temp for a couple hours or in the refrigerator overnight.
