Instructions

Blend the cottage cheese until smooth.
Add the rest of the ingredients to the blender and blend until combined. If the mixture is too thick, mix it on your worktop.
Roll the ball of dough into a log about 8 inches long and 2 inches wide.
Cut into 6 pieces and shape each piece into a bagel shape. Use your finger to make a hole in the middle.
Optional: Coat each bagel with an egg yolk (egg wash) for a shiny finish.
Sprinkle the seasoning on top of each bagel.
Bake on a prepared baking sheet at 350°F (175°C) for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

Notes

Recipe Tips

Adjust the dough consistency: If the dough is too sticky, add a couple of tablespoons of almond flour until it’s manageable. If it’s too crumbly, mix in a bit more cottage cheese. Different brands of cottage cheese have different moisture levels.
Blend the cottage cheese well to avoid lumps.
Use parchment paper on your baking sheet to prevent sticking.
Sprinkle different toppings like sesame seeds or poppy seeds for variety.

Ingredient Swaps

Almond flour can be swapped with coconut flour, but adjust the amount as coconut flour is more absorbent.
Everything but the bagel seasoning can be replaced with your favorite seasoning mix.
Full-fat cottage cheese can be substituted with Greek yogurt for a different texture.

Storage

Store these bagels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, keep them in the fridge for up to a week or freeze them for up to a month.
