Gluten-free baking has never tasted this good!
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well mixed.
In another bowl, mix the cottage cheese, egg, honey, and olive oil until smooth. Ensure there are no large chunks of cottage cheese.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing with a spatula until a dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.
Divide the dough into four equal parts. Roll each piece into a ball, then gently form it into a bagel shape by poking a hole in the center and stretching the dough evenly around the ring.
Place the bagels on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush each bagel with egg white to create a glaze on top.
Sprinkle sesame seeds evenly over the top of each bagel.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Allow the bagels to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature.
