Cook Time: 25 mins
Total Time: 45 mins
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups self-rising flour, plus more for kneading
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons everything bagel seasoning, or to taste
Steps
- Mix flour and Greek yogurt together in a medium bowl until a shaggy dough forms. Transfer to a surface dusted with self-rising flour, and knead for 8 to 10 minutes. Continue adding flour as needed if the dough is too sticky.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Cut the dough into 4 pieces, roughly 4 ounces each. Roll each segment into a smooth ball. Use your thumbs to poke a hole in the center of each round, then gently stretch the dough until it becomes a uniform-sized ring.
- Transfer the dough to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
- Whisk the egg in a small bowl to create an egg wash, then brush a light coating on top of the dough. Sprinkle with bagel seasoning.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 22 minutes. Increase the oven’s temperature to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) and continue to bake until golden, 3 to 4 minutes more.
