Ingredients

• 1 cup almond flour
• 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons cream cheese
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 large egg
• 0.25 cup sliced jalapenos
• 0.25 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons sesame seeds (optional for topping)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until the cheese is completely melted and combined smoothly (about 1 minute total).

Step 3

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

Step 4

Add the melted cheese mixture to the dry ingredients. Break the egg into the bowl and add the sliced jalapenos. Stir the mixture until a sticky dough forms. You may need to knead it with your hands once it is cool enough to handle.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 6 equal parts. Roll each piece into a ball and then form into a bagel shape by flattening slightly and making a hole in the center with your fingers.

Step 6

Place the formed bagels on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the tops with shredded cheddar cheese and sesame seeds, if desired.

Step 7

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the bagels are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8

Allow to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy warm as is or toasted under the broiler for extra crispness.
