Key Ingredients for No-Yeast Greek Yogurt Bagels

• 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
• 1 cup Greek yogurt (preferably plain, full-fat for creaminess)
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil (for brushing)
• Toppings (your choice – sesame seeds, poppy seeds, everything bagel seasoning, etc.)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures your bagels will bake evenly.
2. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk these together until well combined.
3. Incorporate the Yogurt: Add the Greek yogurt to your dry ingredients. If you’re using honey, drizzle it in now. Use a fork to gently combine the mixture until a shaggy dough forms.
4. Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead it gently for about 3-5 minutes until smooth. If the dough is sticky, add a little more flour as necessary.
5. Shape the Bagels: Divide the dough into 6-8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a smooth ball and then poke a hole in the center with your finger, stretching it out gently to form a bagel shape.
6. Prepare for Baking: Place the bagels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with olive oil and sprinkle with your chosen toppings.
7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until they turn a lovely golden brown and have a nice crispy exterior.
8. Cool and Enjoy: Let the bagels cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before enjoying them warm with your favorite toppings.

Top Tips for Perfecting No-Yeast Greek Yogurt Bagels

• Flour Substitutions: If you’re looking for a gluten-free option, try using gluten-free all-purpose flour. Just ensure that it includes xanthan gum or another binding agent.
• Yogurt Choices: Full-fat Greek yogurt yields a creamier texture, but you can also use low-fat yogurt if desired. Just note that the flavor and texture may slightly differ.
• Shape & Size: The size of your bagels will affect the baking time, so keep an eye on them. Larger bagels may need extra time to cook through.
• Avoid Over-mixing: Be sure to mix your dough gently to keep the bagels light and airy!

To keep your No-Yeast Greek Yogurt Bagels fresh, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can also freeze them for up to a month.
