Soft, chewy bagels using Greek yogurt and self-rising flour, topped with everything seasoning.

# Components:

→ Dough

01 - 1 cup self-rising flour (130 g)
02 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, full-fat or low-fat (230 g)

→ Topping

03 - 1 large egg (for egg wash)
04 - 2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning

# Directions:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a medium bowl, stir together self-rising flour and Greek yogurt until a shaggy dough forms.
03 - Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for 2 to 3 minutes until smooth and elastic, being careful not to overwork.

05 - Place shaped bagels spaced evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
06 - Beat the egg in a small bowl and brush over the tops of each bagel.
07 - Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning generously across each bagel’s surface.
08 - Bake for 22 to 25 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
09 - Transfer bagels to a wire rack and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • No yeast means no waiting around; from mixing to warm bagels in 35 minutes flat.
  • Two ingredients for the dough makes this forgiving enough that even rushed mornings feel manageable.
  • That savory seasoning crust creates a satisfying contrast to the soft, pillowy crumb inside.
02 -
  • Don't skip the egg wash—it transforms these from pale to stunning and helps the seasoning stick instead of rolling off.
  • These bagels are best fresh, but they'll keep in an airtight container for a day or two. Slice and toast them to bring them back to life.
03 -
  • Measure your flour by weight if possible; scooping and leveling is close, but weight eliminates the guesswork.
  • If your yogurt is very thick, the dough might be stiff—a teaspoon or two of water can help it come together without throwing off the balance.
