Viral Low-Carb Cottage Cheese Bagels Recipe
Ingredients:
1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat for creaminess)
1 cup almond flour
2 tablespoons coconut flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for topping)
1 tablespoon poppy seeds (optional, for topping)
1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning (optional, for topping)
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Prepare the Cottage Cheese:
In a blender or food processor, blend the cottage cheese until smooth. This will help it mix better with the other ingredients.
Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Add the blended cottage cheese, eggs, and apple cider vinegar to the dry ingredients. Stir until a thick dough forms. The dough will be sticky but should hold together well.
Shape the Bagels:
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Wet your hands to prevent sticking and shape each portion into a ball. Flatten slightly and use your fingers to create a hole in the center, forming a bagel shape. Place the shaped bagels onto the prepared baking sheet.
Add Toppings:
If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or everything bagel seasoning over the top of the bagels.
Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bagels are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Cool and Serve:
Allow the bagels to cool on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy them as is or with your favorite low-carb toppings, such as cream cheese, avocado, or smoked salmon.
Tips:
Blending the Cottage Cheese: Blending cottage cheese smooths out its texture, making it easier to incorporate into the dough.
