Description
These homemade whole wheat strawberry bagels come together with just 6 simple ingredients. They are soft, yummy and easy to make!
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups whole wheat pastry flour or white whole wheat flour, plus more for kneading and working the dough
- 1 1/2 cups plain nonfat Greek yogurt, strained of any liquid on top
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 cup finely chopped strawberries
- Optional: 1 egg, whisked
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, yogurt, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Using a large rubber spatula mix the dough until a crumbly dough starts to form.
- Sprinkle some flour on a clean work surface, then turn the dough onto it. Knead the dough until a ball starts to form. Add the chopped strawberries to the dough and gently knead it into the mixture until fully incorporated, adding extra flour as needed until it’s no longer sticky. Wash your hands to remove any sticky dough on them.
- Flatten the dough into a circular shape, then slice into 8 even-sized pieces (kind of like you would a pizza). Using your hands, roll each dough piece into a long thin, cylinder shape. You may need to sprinkle extra flour on the work surface and/or dough again to prevent it from sticking. One by one, join both ends of each dough piece together by pinching and rubbing the dough together to form a round ‘O’ bagel shape.
- Transfer each bagel on the prepared sheet pan. Lightly brush the tops of each bagel with the whisked egg (optional, but will help give the bagels a nice brown and crispy top).
- Place the bagels in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until golden on top. Allow to cool before slicing. Enjoy with some cream cheese and freshly sliced strawberries on top, if desired.
Notes
Be sure to strain any liquid from your yogurt. Any extra liquid sitting in your yogurt will cause the dough to be too wet.
Is the dough too sticky? Add more flour as needed until no longer sticky.
