Looking for a wholesome breakfast option that’s both satisfying and packed with protein? These easy 3-ingredient protein bagels are the perfect solution! Made with just Greek yogurt, olive oil, and self-rising flour, these homemade bagels are simple to make and bursting with flavor.

In this blog post, we’ll walk you through the ingredients, step-by-step instructions, and creative ideas for flavor variations to customize your protein-packed bagels.

What You Need:

1 cup (250g) Greek yogurt (plain or flavored)
1 tablespoon (15ml) olive oil
1 1/2 cups (180g) unbleached all purpose flour

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
1. Or you can cook these in the airfryer at 280°F
Line a baking sheet or your airfryer basket with parchment paper and lightly grease it with olive oil to prevent sticking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and olive oil. Stir until well combined.
Gradually add the self-rising flour to the yogurt mixture, stirring until a dough forms. You may need to use your hands to knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Once the dough is formed, divide it into equal-sized portions, depending on how many bagels you want to make. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten it slightly to form a bagel shape.
Use your thumb to poke a hole through the center of each bagel, shaping it into a traditional bagel shape.
Place the shaped bagels onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.
Brush the tops of the bagels with olive oil (or egg wash) for a shiny finish.
Add any toppings to the bagels (see flavor variation ideas below!)
Bake the bagels in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
1. Bake in the airfryer for 15-16 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. No need to flip half way through!
Once baked, remove the bagels from the oven and allow them to cool before cutting in half
