Equipment

1 Immersion blender or blender

Ingredients

1 ½ cup cottage cheese
1 ½ cup all-purpose flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1 egg
1 tsp milk or water
1 tbsp everything bagel seasoning

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add 1 1/2 cups of cottage cheese to a large bowl and use an immersion blender to blend it until smooth.
Add 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour and 1 tbsp of baking powder to the bowl and use a spoon or your clean hands to mix the dry ingredients into the cottage cheese.
Cut the dough into 6 equal pieces. Use your hands to form the dough into a disk and then use your thumb to make a hole in the center of the dough that is abut 1" in diameter. Place the formed bagel dough onto the baking sheet.
Whisk the egg and milk in a small bowl with a fork. Baste the top of each bagel with the egg wash using a basting brush being sure to get inside and outside edges of the bagel.
Sprinkle the top of the bagels evenly with everything bagel seasoning.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the bagels are golden brown. Remove and let cool before serving or storing.

Notes

Storage:

Once the bagels are cooled, store in a tightly sealed container on the counter for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
