Step-by-Step Instructions for Greek Yogurt Bagels

  • Combine the dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, salt, sugar, baking powder, and active dry yeast. Whisk until evenly distributed.
  • Mix in the wet ingredients: Pour in warm water, add Greek yogurt and olive oil. Stir until the dough starts to come together.
  • Knead the dough: Knead inside the bowl for about 1 minute, then transfer to a floured surface and knead for another 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rise: Shape the dough into a ball, cover, and let it rise in a warm spot for 30-45 minutes until doubled in size.
  • Shape the bagels: Punch down the dough, divide into 6 portions, roll into balls, and create holes in the center for bagel shape.
  • Preheat and boil: Preheat oven to 375°F. Boil water, drop bagels in, and boil for 1-2 minutes per side.
  • Prepare for baking: Remove bagels from water, place on baking sheet, brush with beaten egg, and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
  • Bake until golden: Bake for 20-25 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
  • Cool and serve: Let bagels cool for a few minutes on a wire rack and enjoy warm with toppings.

Notes

Knead dough until smooth for best texture, use warm water to activate yeast properly, and don't skip boiling for a chewy crust.
