Protein Bagels

Who says eating healthy has to be complicated? These easy homemade bagels start with just two ingredients—flour and Greek yogurt! Make them traditional, gluten-free, keto-friendly with King Arthur Keto Flour, or carnivore-inspired using crushed pork rinds. Adjust the ingredients to fit your nutritional needs, adding baking powder when using flour that isn't self-rising and binders when needed. Per
