Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, mix together the almond flour and baking powder. Set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals until the cheeses are melted and smooth.
Add the egg, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt to the cheese mixture and stir well to incorporate.
Mix the cheese and flour mixtures together. Knead until you form a smooth dough.
Divide the dough into four equal parts. Roll each piece into a log and form into a circle to create a bagel shape. Place each bagel onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the bagels for 12-15 minutes, until they are golden brown.
Let the bagels cool for a few minutes before slicing.
Spread 1 ounce of softened cream cheese on each bagel half.
Top each bagel with a portion of smoked salmon, a few capers, sliced red onion, and a sprinkle of fresh dill.
Season with black pepper to taste.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious low-carb bagel with smoked salmon and cream cheese.
