INGREDIENTS AND SUBSTITUTIONS FOR BAGELS WITH FATHEAD DOUGH

almond flour, (1 1/2 cups): Almond flour provides a nutty flavor and keeps these bagels low-carb and gluten-free. If you have a nut allergy or prefer a different option, you can substitute with an equal amount of sunflower seed flour. Just note that this may slightly alter the taste and texture.

mozzarella, Cheese (2 oz, shredded): This cheese gives the bagels a deliciously chewy texture. You can substitute with any other mild, meltable cheese like cheddar or Monterey Jack if you prefer a different flavor profile.

cream cheese, (2 oz, cubed): Cream cheese adds creaminess to the dough. For a dairy-free option, you can use a vegan cream cheese alternative. Be sure to choose one that melts well to maintain the texture.

Eggs (2 large, beaten): Eggs are essential for binding the ingredients together. If you’re looking for an egg-free version, you can use flax eggs (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal + 2.5 tablespoons water per egg) as a substitute, though this may slightly change the texture.

Gluten-Free baking powder, (1 tablespoon): This helps the bagels rise and gives them a light texture. Make sure your baking powder is gluten-free if you’re avoiding gluten. If you’re out of baking powder,, you can make a substitute by mixing 1/4 teaspoon baking soda with 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar for every teaspoon of baking powder.

sesame seeds, (optional): Sesame seeds add a lovely crunch and nutty flavor. Feel free to substitute with other seeds like poppy seeds, chia seeds, or even leave them out if you prefer.

These substitutions allow you to tailor the recipe to your dietary needs or what’s available in your pantry, ensuring delicious results every time!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp gluten-free baking powder,
  • 2 ounces mozzarella, cheese shredded
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour,
  • sesame seeds, optional
  • 2 ounces cream cheese,

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Prepare the Cheese Mixture: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the cream cheese and shredded mozzarella. Microwave on high for about 1-2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until the cheese is completely melted and well combined. Alternatively, you can melt the cheese mixture on the stovetop using a double boiler over low heat, stirring until smooth.
  • Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the gluten-free baking powder with the almond flour.
  • Form the Dough: Add the beaten eggs to the almond flour mixture and stir until combined. Then, add this mixture to the hot cheese mixture. Mix thoroughly with your hands until a dough forms. If the dough is too stiff, you can microwave it for an additional 15-20 seconds to soften.
  • Shape the Bagels: Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a log shape, then form each log into a bagel shape by connecting the ends. Place the bagels on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Add Toppings: If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds on top of each bagel.
  • Bake: Bake the bagels in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Cool and Serve: Allow the bagels to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious, low-carb bagels!
