Everything Bagel Yogurt Bagels (Print Version)

Soft, chewy bagels using Greek yogurt and self-rising flour topped with flavorful everything seasoning.

# What You'll Need:

→ Dough

01 - 1 cup self-rising flour
02 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or low-fat)

→ Topping

03 - 1 large egg (for egg wash)
04 - 2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning

# How-To Steps:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a medium bowl, mix self-rising flour and Greek yogurt using a spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
03 - Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for 2 to 3 minutes until smooth and elastic, avoiding overworking.
04 - Divide dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll each into a 7 to 8 inch rope, then shape into a bagel by pinching ends together.
05 - Place shaped bagels onto prepared baking sheet.
06 - Beat egg in a small bowl and brush evenly over bagel tops.
07 - Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning generously on each bagel.
08 - Bake bagels for 22 to 25 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
09 - Transfer bagels to a wire rack and cool for 5 minutes before serving.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • They're genuinely chewy and soft, not dense or bready like some shortcuts can be.
  • Two ingredients for the dough means you can make these in your sleep on a lazy weekend.
  • Everything bagel seasoning does all the flavor work, so you don't have to fuss with toppings.
02 -
  • Don't skip the gentle kneading step—it makes the difference between a tender bagel and one that's tough or gritty.
  • If your dough feels too sticky after mixing, resist the urge to add more flour; an extra minute or two of kneading usually fixes it naturally.
03 -
  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for the softest, most tender result—the fat really matters here.
  • Make sure your everything bagel seasoning hasn't been sitting in your spice rack for years; fresh seasoning makes a huge difference in how vibrant they taste.
