Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 200g cottage cheese
- 1 egg
- 60g flour
- 40g grated mozzarella
- Black sesame
- Seeds for sprinkle (or everything bagel seasoning)
- Egg yolk (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 365°F (185°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix the cottage cheese, egg, sesame seeds, and grated mozzarella in a large bowl until well combined.
- Add the flour and mix until you have a soft dough. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour.
- Divide the dough into 4-6 equal parts. Shape each part into a bagel shape by rolling it into a ball and poking a hole in the middle.
- Brush the bagels with egg yolk and sprinkle with the seeds or everything bagel seasoning.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes or until the bagels are golden brown and cooked through.
- Let them cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Make sure to drain any excess liquid from the cottage cheese before mixing it with the other ingredients. This helps the dough come together nicely and ensures your bagels have the perfect texture.
For perfectly shaped bagels, lightly oil your hands before shaping the dough. This prevents the dough from sticking to your fingers and makes it easier to form smooth, even rings. Plus, it helps create a nice, shiny crust when baked!
