01 - 2 cups white whole wheat flour, plus more for dusting
02 - 1 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
03 - 2 teaspoons baking powder
04 - 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
05 - 1 large egg, beaten for egg wash

→ Greek Yogurt Everything Dip

07 - 1 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
08 - 1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning
09 - 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
10 - 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
11 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
12 - 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

# How-To Steps:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly distributed.
03 - Add Greek yogurt to dry ingredients and mix until a shaggy dough forms, using a spatula or wooden spoon.
04 - Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 2 to 3 minutes until smooth and elastic.
05 - Divide dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each piece into a 10-inch rope, then form into a bagel shape by bringing ends together and pinching firmly to seal.
06 - Arrange shaped bagels on the prepared baking sheet. Brush tops generously with beaten egg and sprinkle liberally with everything bagel seasoning.
07 - Bake for 22 to 25 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to cooling rack.
08 - In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, everything bagel seasoning, chives, lemon juice, garlic powder, and onion powder. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until service.
09 - Serve warm bagels alongside the chilled Greek yogurt everything dip.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • They're ready in under an hour, no overnight fermentation or mysterious timing required.
  • Genuinely chewy and satisfying, not the dense protein-powder taste you might expect.
  • The dip is so good you'll find yourself making extra and eating it with literally everything else in your fridge.
02 -
  • Don't skip the egg wash or you'll get a pale, matte bagel instead of that gorgeous golden-brown finish that makes them look intentional.
  • The dough will feel wetter and softer than traditional bread dough—this is exactly right and exactly what makes them tender, so trust it instead of adding more flour.
03 -
  • Use an instant-read thermometer if you're uncertain about doneness—the center should hit 210°F when you poke it gently, but honestly, a golden exterior and hollow-sounding tap is reliable too.
  • Everything bagel seasoning quality varies wildly between brands, so taste your dip as you go and adjust the seasoning balance yourself rather than just dumping in the full amount.
