A quick and easy keto-friendly everything bagel recipe using almond flour that delivers a crispy crust and soft interior, perfect for low-carb breakfasts or snacks.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (200g) finely ground almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons psyllium husk powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 ounces (113g) cream cheese, softened (full-fat recommended)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning (sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried garlic, dried onion, sea salt)
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a large bowl, combine almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
  3. In another bowl, beat softened cream cheese and eggs until smooth and creamy. Add apple cider vinegar if using.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir with a spoon, then knead gently with hands until a slightly sticky dough forms. Add a teaspoon of water if too crumbly.
  5. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Roll each into a ball, poke a hole in the center, and stretch gently to form bagel shapes.
  6. Brush each bagel lightly with water or an extra egg white. Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning evenly over the tops, pressing gently to stick.
  7. Place bagels on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and crisp. If still soft after 30 minutes, bake an additional 5 minutes.
  8. Transfer bagels to a wire rack and cool for at least 10 minutes to firm up the crust.

Notes

Do not skip the cooling step to avoid gummy texture. Psyllium husk powder is essential for chewiness; do not substitute with fiber supplements. Use room temperature eggs and cream cheese for smoother dough. Watch the oven after 20 minutes to prevent burning. Silicone baking mats yield the crispiest bottoms. For dairy-free, substitute cream cheese with almond-based cream cheese. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
