Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 3 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1 cup sesame seeds
- 2 cups water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Mix well to ensure an even distribution of ingredients.
In a microwave-safe bowl, add the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for about 1 minute until the cheese is melted and smooth, stirring halfway through to mix.
Add the eggs into the melted cheese mixture and whisk until well combined.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients bowl. Using a spatula or your hands, mix the dough until a smooth, firm ball forms.
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a log, about 5-6 inches long, then connect the ends to form a ring, pinching to seal.
Bring the 2 cups of water to a boil in a wide pot. Once boiling, gently drop 2-3 bagels at a time into the boiling water. Boil each side of the bagel for about 30 seconds, then remove with a slotted spoon and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Once all the bagels have been boiled, sprinkle the sesame seeds generously on top of each bagel.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
Allow to cool on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your low carb Montreal bagels with cream cheese or your favorite toppings.
