Step-by-Step Instructions :

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, combine the self-rising flour and Greek yogurt. Stir with a spatula until a thick dough forms.
3. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently for 1-2 minutes until the dough is smooth and no longer sticky.
4. Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope and join the ends to form a bagel shape.
5. Place bagels on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with seasonings if desired.
6. Bake for 22-25 minutes until golden brown. Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing.

Tips for Success 2-Ingredient Greek Yogurt Bagels

• Measure flour properly: Spoon and level the self-rising flour to avoid a dry, crumbly dough.
• Dough consistency: If dough feels too sticky, add a tablespoon of flour at a time; if too dry, add a teaspoon of yogurt.
• Egg wash trick: For extra shine and color, brush bagels with a beaten egg before baking. Skip it for a dairy-free finish.
• Even baking: Space bagels at least 1 inch apart so air circulates and they brown evenly.
• Storage: Keep cooled bagels in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
• Want another hearty Greek-inspired dish? Try a comforting Greek manestra recipe as a side for dinner.

variation (if any)

• Cinnamon-Sugar Bagels: Add 1 tsp cinnamon to the dough and roll shaped bagels in a cinnamon-sugar mix before baking.
• Seeded Everything Bagels: Top with sesame, poppy seeds, and minced garlic for an everything-style finish.
• Gluten-free: Substitute with a gluten-free self-rising flour blend (results may vary; dough handling will be different).

FAQs

Q: Can I use full-fat Greek yogurt instead of non-fat?
A: Yes — full-fat or low-fat Greek yogurt will both work. Full-fat gives a slightly richer flavor and softer crumb.

Q: What if I don’t have self-rising flour?
A: Make your own by combining 1 cup all-purpose flour + 1 1/2 tsp baking powder + 1/4 tsp salt. Use this mix in place of self-rising flour.

Q: Can I skip the egg wash?
A: Absolutely. The egg wash gives shine and color, but skipping it still yields delicious bagels with a more matte finish.

Q: How do I store and reheat these bagels?
A: Store cooled bagels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 48 hours or freeze. Reheat in a toaster or oven at 350°F until warmed through.

Q: Can I double the recipe?
A: Yes — double everything and bake on two sheets, rotating halfway through for even browning.
