Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1.5 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 5 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning
- 4 pieces lox slices
- 4 tablespoons cream cheese, for topping
- 2 tablespoons capers
- 2 sprigs fresh dill
- 0.25 small red onion, thinly sliced
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and 5 tablespoons of cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until the cheese is completely melted and smooth.
Add the almond flour, baking powder, and egg to the melted cheese mixture. Stir until a dough forms. You may need to knead it a bit with your hands to fully incorporate the ingredients.
Divide the dough into four equal parts. Roll each portion into a ball, then poke a hole in the center to form a bagel shape.
Place the bagels on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the top of each with everything bagel seasoning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the bagels are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack.
Once cooled, slice each bagel in half horizontally.
Spread 1 tablespoon of cream cheese on each bagel half.
Top with a slice of lox, some capers, a sprig of dill, and thinly sliced red onion.
Serve immediately and enjoy your keto-friendly bagel with lox and cream cheese!
