Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 2 ounces Cream cheese
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 tablespoon Everything bagel seasoning
• 4 ounces Cream cheese, for topping
• 4 ounces Lox (smoked salmon)
• 2 tablespoons Capers
• 0.25 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon Fresh dill (optional)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well and set aside.

Step 3

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and 2 ounces of cream cheese. Microwave for 1 minute, stir, and microwave for another 30 seconds until the cheese is melted and easy to stir.

Step 4

Add the melted cheese mixture to the almond flour mixture followed by the 2 eggs.

Step 5

Stir quickly until a cohesive dough forms. The dough may be sticky at first but will become manageable as you mix.

Step 6

Divide the dough into four equal parts and shape each into a bagel form. You can do this by rolling each part into a log and connecting the ends to form a circle.

Step 7

Place the formed bagels onto the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle the tops with everything bagel seasoning.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the bagels are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

Remove the bagels from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack.

Step 10

Once cooled, slice each bagel and spread 1 ounce of cream cheese on each half.

Step 11

Top with slices of lox, a few capers, slices of red onion, and a sprinkle of fresh dill if using.

Step 12

Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Classic Bagel with Cream Cheese and Lox.
