Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups cottage cheese
- 1 1/2 cups einkorn flour
- 1/2 cup whey protein powder
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Blend the cottage cheese in a blender until smooth.
- In a bowl, whisk the einkorn flour, whey protein powder, baking powder, and sea salt together.
- Incorporate the cottage cheese into the dry ingredients and mix to form a dough.
- Knead the dough with a hand mixer for 3-5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dough for 30-60 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (191°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Divide the chilled dough into 6 equal sections, then roll each into a log and shape into bagels.
- Optionally, apply an egg wash or add toppings before baking.
- Bake for about 20 minutes until firm and slightly golden.
Notes
Ensure the cottage cheese is well blended for a smooth texture.
Refrigerating the dough helps to reduce stickiness and improve handling.
Feel free to experiment with bagel toppings according to your taste.
