Ingredients

• 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 packet instant yeast
• 1.25 cups warm water
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 2 medium jalapenos, diced
• 1 egg white
• 1 tablespoon water

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, sugar, salt, and instant yeast. Whisk together until well blended.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, combine warm water, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar. Stir well.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a sticky dough forms.

Step 4

Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and diced jalapenos, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 5

Cover the bowl with a clean cloth and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes, or until it has doubled in size.

Step 6

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 7

Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball, then poke a hole in the center with your finger and gently stretch it into a ring shape to form the bagel.

Step 8

In a small bowl, beat the egg white with a tablespoon of water. Brush the egg wash over each bagel for a glossy finish.

Step 9

Transfer the bagels to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to the touch.

Step 10

Let the bagels cool on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy them plain, toasted, or with your favorite toppings!
