Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 2 ounces Cream cheese
• 1 Egg
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your 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, garlic powder, dried oregano, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a microwave-safe bowl, add the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir and microwave for an additional 30 seconds until the cheese is completely melted and forms a smooth mixture.

Step 4

Add the melted cheese mixture to the bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix together until well combined. The dough will be slightly sticky.

Step 5

Add the egg to the dough and mix until fully incorporated. You may need to knead the dough with your hands at this point to fully integrate all ingredients.

Step 6

Divide the dough into 6 equal parts. Roll each part into a ball and then shape it into a bagel shape by pressing a finger through the center and gently stretching to create a hole.

Step 7

Place each shaped bagel onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 8

If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds over the top of each bagel.

Step 9

Bake the bagels in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and firm to the touch.

Step 10

Allow the bagels to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Serve warm or store in an airtight container refrigerated for up to a week. Enjoy your low-carb cheese bagel as a delicious and satisfying snack or breakfast.
