Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons xanthan gum
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 4 large egg whites
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- 0.25 cups unsalted butter
- 4 slices bacon
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1 tablespoon chives
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg whites and apple cider vinegar until frothy.
Melt the butter in the microwave or on the stove, then pour into the dry ingredients along with the egg white mixture. Stir until a dough forms.
Divide the dough into two equal portions and shape each into a bagel form on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes until the bagels are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let them cool on a wire rack.
While the bagels are baking, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove from pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add olive oil if necessary, and cook the eggs to your liking (fried or sunny-side up). Season with black pepper.
Once the bagels are cool enough to handle, slice them in half horizontally.
Spread cream cheese over the bottom half of each bagel, sprinkle with chives, then top with two slices of bacon.
Place the cooked egg on top of the bacon and close with the bagel tops.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb bagel with egg and bacon!
