Overview

Keto Bagels are a low-carb, gluten-free alternative to traditional bagels. They incorporate almond flour and cheese to achieve a dough-like consistency without using traditional flour.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese
• 2 tbsp Cream cheese
• 1 1/4 cups Almond flour
• 1 large Egg
• 2 tsp baking powder
• Optional toppings: sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or garlic powder

Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave for 60-90 seconds, stirring halfway through, until cheeses are melted and combined. 3. Add the almond flour, egg, and baking powder to the cheese mixture and mix until a dough forms. 4. Divide the dough into 6 even portions and roll each into a ball. 5. Press a hole through the center of each ball to form a bagel shape and place on the prepared baking sheet. 6. If desired, sprinkle with optional toppings. 7. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
