Description

Imagine biting into a warm, satisfying bagel that perfectly balances a soft, chewy texture with a rich, savory flavor. These bagels offer a delightful, comforting experience, reminiscent of traditional bagels without the carbs. The secret lies in a unique dough, crafted from a blend of melted cheddar and creamy cheese, which creates a wonderfully pliable base.

Finely ground almonds and coconut flour contribute to the bagel's structure, while ground flaxseed adds a subtle nutty note and enhances the overall texture. But what truly sets these bagels apart is the generous addition of crispy bacon and tender, caramelized onions. Each bite delivers a burst of smoky, salty bacon paired with the sweet, mellow flavor of gently browned onions, creating a harmonious blend of tastes and textures.

The slight tang of the cheese dough complements the savory additions, making each bagel incredibly satisfying. For those who prefer a touch of sweetness, a hint of sweetener can be added to the dough, though the natural flavors shine beautifully on their own. These bagels are a fantastic way to enjoy a bread-like treat without compromising your dietary goals.

They're incredibly versatile, lending themselves to a variety of delicious toppings and fillings. Consider slicing one open and layering it with smoked salmon and crisp cucumber for an elegant brunch. Or, for a hearty lunch, fill it with fresh lettuce, your favorite cheese, and juicy tomato slices.

Whether toasted or enjoyed fresh, these bagels are a delightful addition to any meal, offering a guilt-free way to indulge in the comforting flavors of a classic bakery favorite.

Instructions

    1.
    Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over a low/medium heat. Finely dice the onion and add to the skillet. Cook gently until tender, golden and starting to crisp at the edges. Remove from the skillet with a slotted spoon and set to one side.
    2.
    Add the bacon to the skillet. Cook through until crisp and golden on both sides. Set aside to cool, then chop into small chunks.
    3.
    Add the ground almonds, coconut flour, flaxseed, onion powder, baking soda, black pepper, salt, and erythritol to a food processor. Blend together until well combined. At this stage you can use an alternative sweetener if desired or omit entirely if preferred.
    4.
    Add the grated cheese to a microwaveable bowl. Microwave briefly until the cheese has completely melted. Alternatively, you can set the bowl over a double boiler on the stove and heat through until melted. Add the melted cheese and cream cheese to the food processor. Blend together until well combined. You should have a chunky crumb consistency.
    5.
    Crack the egg into the food processor. Add the almond milk, lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Blend again until well combined and a dough forms. The dough should hold together well and will be slightly tacky.
    6.
    Preheat the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Transfer the dough to a large mixing bowl. Add the chopped bacon and cooked onion and knead into the dough mixture so they are evenly spread throughout.
    7.
    Line a shallow oven tray with baking paper. Turn the dough out onto the lined oven tray. Divide into four even portions.
    8.
    Roll the dough into balls and push your thumb gently through the middle to create a hole. Mould the dough carefully into bagel shapes and arrange across the tray.
    9.
    Lightly brush the bagels all over with the remaining olive oil. Transfer to the oven to bake for 20-25 minutes or until completely cooked through and golden brown all over. Set to one side to cool before serving.
