Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of almond flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix well.
Add 2 tablespoons of melted coconut oil, 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar, and 3 whisked eggs to the dry ingredients. Stir until you have a thick batter.
Spoon the batter into donut molds or shape into bagels on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until the bagels are golden brown and firm to the touch. Allow them to cool on a wire rack.
Meanwhile, prepare the dairy-free cheese spread by soaking 1 cup of cashews in hot water for at least 15 minutes, then drain.
In a blender, combine the soaked cashews, 2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 0.5 teaspoon of garlic powder, 0.5 teaspoon of sea salt, and 0.5 cup of water. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Slice the cooled bagels in half and spread a generous portion of the cashew cheese on one half.
Layer each bagel with a slice of sugar-free ham and top with the other half of the bagel.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30 compliant ham and cheese bagel!
