My Approach

These High Protein Bagels are soft, chewy, and made with almond flour for an extra boost of protein and nutrition. They are freezer-friendly, making them perfect for busy mornings. I like to pair one with an egg for a simple, satisfying breakfast that helps keep everyone full, energized, and focused throughout the morning without the mid-morning crash.

Protein rich breakfast

Protein is an important part of breakfast because it helps keep you feeling full and satisfied for longer. Unlike sugary breakfasts that can lead to an energy crash later in the morning, a protein-rich meal provides steady energy and supports focus throughout the day. These high-protein bagels are one of my favorite make-ahead breakfasts. Paired with an egg, they create a simple, nourishing meal that keeps both me and my kids fueled and energized until lunchtime.

Ingredients

Scale

1/2x 1x 2x 3x

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups plain yogurt
• 1 egg beaten (for egg wash)
• sesame seeds for topping

Instructions

Preheat the Oven

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Mix the Dry Ingredients

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Add the Yogurt

1. Add the yogurt and mix until a dough forms. If needed, knead gently with your hands until the dough comes together.

Shape the Bagels

1. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each piece into a rope and connect the ends to form a bagel shape.

Add the Egg Wash

1. Place the bagels on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the beaten egg and sprinkle with your favorite toppings, if desired.

Bake

1. Bake for 22–25 minutes, or until the bagels are golden brown.

Cool and Serve

1. Allow the bagels to cool for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy fresh or freeze for later.

Note

Recipe Notes

I use full-fat Greek yogurt for the best flavor and texture.

If the dough feels sticky, add a little extra flour, one tablespoon at a time.

Do not overwork the dough, as this can make the bagels dense.

Feel free to customize the toppings with everything bagel seasoning, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or shredded cheese.

These bagels freeze beautifully. Once cooled, store them in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months.

For a protein-packed breakfast, pair a bagel with eggs, cream cheese, or nut butter.
