Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (preferably low-fat) For a healthier option
  • 1 cup self-rising flour Can substitute with homemade self-rising flour
  • 1 large egg (lightly beaten)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese and self-rising flour. Stir until fully combined.
  3. Pour in the beaten egg and mix until you achieve a dough-like consistency. If the mixture feels too sticky, add a little more flour.
  4. Knead the dough lightly on a floured surface until smooth. Divide it into four equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and then poke a hole in the center to shape it into a bagel.
  5. Place the bagels on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes or until they are golden brown.
  6. Once baked, let your bagels cool for a few minutes before enjoying them warm with your favorite toppings.

Notes

Store bagels in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze them for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven or toaster to restore crispiness.
