Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, almond flour, and eggs.
Add the baking powder and salt, stirring until the mixture is well incorporated and smooth.
If desired, fold in the chives for added flavor.
Divide the mixture into four even portions. Roll each portion into a ball and then flatten slightly.
Use your thumb or a small spoon to create a hole in the center of each ball to form a bagel shape.
Brush the bagels lightly with olive oil using a pastry brush.
Sprinkle the everything bagel seasoning evenly over the tops of each bagel.
Place on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
Allow the bagels to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
