Ingredients

  • 1 cup small curd low-fat cottage cheese
  • 1 cup self -rising flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg , beaten
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cottage cheese, self-rising flour, garlic powder, kosher salt, and grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Stir with a spatula until a shaggy dough forms, then transfer to a lightly floured surface.
  • Knead the dough gently for approximately 1-2 minutes until smooth and no longer sticky, adding small amounts of flour if necessary.
  • Divide the dough into 4 equal-sized portions and roll each into a rope approximately 6-8 inches long.
  • Connect the ends of each rope to form a ring and place onto the prepared baking sheet.
  • Brush the tops of the bagels with the beaten egg wash and sprinkle with dried parsley.
  • Bake for 22-25 minutes or until the bagels are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped.
  • Transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing to allow the crumb structure to set.
