How to Make Protein Bagels
- In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well-blended.
- Add the plain unsweetened Greek yogurt to the dry mixture. Stir gently until a cohesive dough forms.
- Divide the dough into two equal portions. Roll each portion into a rope, about 6 inches long. Join the ends to form a circle.
- Set your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to heat for about 5 minutes.
- Lightly spray the bagels with non-stick spray or brush them with an egg wash. Generously sprinkle Everything But the Bagel seasoning on top.
- Place the bagels in the air fryer basket and cook for 8 minutes. Flip them over and air fry for another 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
- Carefully remove the bagels from the air fryer and let them cool for a minute. Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
