Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
Pinch of salt (optional)
1 cup + 2 tablespoons cottage cheese (2% or 4%)
1 egg (optional)
Toppings: everything seasoning, poppy seeds, sesame seeds
Instructions
In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
Make a well in the center and add the cottage cheese. Mix using a fork until a chunky dough forms.
Transfer to a floured surface and knead for 1-2 minutes until it becomes a semi-smooth ball. Add flour if sticky.
Divide into 4 sections, roll each into a 6-7 inch log, then connect ends to form bagels.
If using an egg, whisk with a splash of water and brush over bagels. Sprinkle chosen toppings.
Preheat air fryer to 300°F. Line the basket with parchment. Place bagels in an even layer.
Cook for 15-17 minutes until golden. Let cool for 15 minutes before serving.
