These Keto Everything Bagels are so close to the real thing, that you won't feel deprived at all. Chewy and delicious. Best of all, they are ready in less than 30 minutes.
Ingredients
- Mozzarella - for this recipe, I recommend using a pre-shredded low moisture, part skim cheese.
- Almond flour - for a chewier, less grainy texture, I recommend using a blanched almond flour or a superfine almond flour.
- Everything Bagel Seasoning - Instead of buying a store-bought version, I make my own. You can find my recipe here. If you aren't a fan of everything seasoning, you can sub sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or even leave them plain.

To take this bagel recipe and turn it into a sweet version, simply omit the garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning from the bagel dough, and brush the top with a mix of sweetener and cinnamon. Recipe: Keto Cinnamon Sugar (free) Bagels
This low carb bagel recipe is made of a version of fathead dough. Fathead dough is usually made with a combination of almond flour, cheese, and eggs.
The main ingredients of fathead dough are blanched almond flour, mozzarella cheese, and eggs. Combined, they make an amazing low carb dough that is incredibly versatile and can be made either savory or sweet. I have used it to make Low Carb Empanadas, Keto Chicken Pot Pie, Everything Bagel Dogs, Ham and Cheese Hot Pockets and more.
Yes, you canmake the bagels and freeze them to reheat at a later time. I recommend reheating them in the oven.

Description
A quick and easy low carb bagel recipe. Great for meal prep and perfect for an easy weekday breakfast.
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour (get it here)
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (I use this brand)
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 3 large eggs, divided
- 3 cups shredded low moisture mozzarella cheese
- 5 tablespoons cream cheese
- 3 tablespoons Everything Bagel Seasoning (Get the recipe here)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried Italian seasoning. Mix until well combined. I like to put the mixture through a flour sifter to ensure that all the baking powder gets mixed in with the rest of the ingredients.
- Crack one of the eggs into a small bowl and fork whisk. This will be the egg wash for the top of the bagels. The other two eggs will go in the dough.
- In a large microwave safe mixing bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds. Remove from microwave and stir to combine. Return to microwave for 1 additional minute. Mix until well combined.
- To the mixing bowl, add the remaining 2 eggs and the almond flour mixture. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated. If the dough gets too stringy and unworkable, simply put it back in the microwave for 30 seconds to soften and continue mixing.
- Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball.
- Gently press your finger into the center of each dough ball to form a ring. Stretch the ring to make a small hole in the center and form it into a bagel shape.
- Brush the top of each bagel with the egg wash.
- Top each bagel with Everything Bagel Seasoning.
- Bake on the middle rack for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown.
Notes
If you do not have a silicone baking mat or parchment paper, you can also bake these on foil, in a large donut pan, or on a greased baking sheet.

Kelly says
Okay yummy! I had this all mixed up and opened the refrigerator to find only one egg!! I carried on. So they were a little flat, but man they are still yummy! I will be playing with this recipe. Pizza bagels are on my mind. Great recipe! Thank you
Lisa Lejeune says
Just a smalll pet peeve of mine. Since I'm not an experienced baker (and other recipes have said this before) you say to divide the eggs but then mix them with the mixture. Am I mixing the whole egg back in, just the whites, just the yolks?
Peace Love and Low Carb says
Divided means that all three eggs aren't used in the recipe at the same time. Two go in the mix, and one is used as an egg wash for the top. I think the term you are thinking of for eggs is separated. That is when you would separate the yolks and the whites. Hope this helps.

Debra says
I made these today and they are delicious. Went a bit flat but I think it needs to be shaped into a ball. I may have shaped them too flat to start with. Used Everything Bagel Seasoning from Trader Joe’s.
