Everything Bagel Yogurt (Printer View)

Soft, chewy bagels using Greek yogurt and everything seasoning for a quick homemade treat.

# What you'll need:

→ Dough

01 - 1 cup self-rising flour
02 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or low-fat)

→ Topping

03 - 1 large egg (for egg wash)
04 - 2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning

# Method:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a medium bowl, combine self-rising flour and Greek yogurt. Stir with a spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
03 - Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently for 2 to 3 minutes until smooth and elastic, avoiding overworking.
04 - Divide dough into four equal portions. Roll each into a rope approximately 7 to 8 inches long, then join ends to form bagel shapes.
05 - Place shaped bagels onto the prepared baking sheet.
06 - Beat the egg in a small bowl. Brush the tops of each bagel evenly with the egg wash.
07 - Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning generously over each bagel topping.
08 - Bake in the preheated oven for 22 to 25 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked.
09 - Transfer bagels to a wire rack and let cool for 5 minutes prior to serving.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • No yeast, no overnight rising—these bagels come together in 35 minutes, which means you can satisfy that bagel craving without planning ahead.
  • The Greek yogurt creates an impossibly tender crumb that stays soft even as it cools, and the everything seasoning delivers that deli-counter punch of flavor.
  • It's a recipe that actually works with ingredients most people have in their fridge right now.
02 -
  • Don't skip the kneading step entirely—2–3 minutes of gentle kneading actually matters because it develops just enough gluten structure to give you that chewy bagel texture instead of a dense lump.
  • If your oven runs hot, these can brown quickly, so check them at the 22-minute mark and tent with foil if the tops are already dark.
03 -
  • If you want to make a dairy-free version, swap in a plant-based Greek yogurt and verify your self-rising flour is dairy-free—the bagels will turn out just as good.
  • These bagels are naturally lower in calories and higher in protein than traditional bagels, so they're genuinely more filling than they seem at first bite.
