I have been baking egg-free recipes with almond flour for many years, and I gradually became an expert at baking low-carb keto-friendly baked goods, most of which you can find on Sweet As Honey, my keto food blog. My favorite so far is my almond flour cake recipe without eggs, and my Almond Flour Chocolate Chips Cookies, they both helped me understand how almond flour works in baking and how to create these fantastic bagels. While many people think you need eggs to make bread with almond flour, I learned four years ago after experimenting in my kitchen that it’s easy to make gluten-free, vegan keto bread recipes. While I love this bread, store. In this bagel recipe, I achieved a crusty bagel that raises well and uses just 5-ingredients. Let me explain how to make them. Note that for an even healthier version, you can try my Quinoa Bagels!

Ingredients and Tips to Success
You only need five non-optional ingredients for this recipe.
Blanched Almond Flour is the best to bake bread, or cookies like my almond flour shortbread. It keep the color of your baked goods light and golden. It also prevent gritty texture that you often refer to when you bake my recipes with almond meal instead of almond flour. Plant-Based Yogurt with a thick texture, like Greek coconut yogurt or soy yoghurt. If your yogurt is thin, more liquid, like oat yogurt, you may need to add tablespoon of psyllium husk or flaxmeal to help the batter firm up. Salt if you like the salty bagels, but you can skip them if you watch the sodium. Apple Cider Vinegar or lemon juice are acid ingredients that boost the raising agent and add fluffier crumb to the bagels. Baking Powder is your raising agent. It rises the bagels to just the right thickness. Bagel seasoning is what I love to use on top of my bagels, I contains onion flakes, sea salt flakes, sesame seeds, and poppy seeds. My tip if you don’t use this as a topping, add a pinch garlic powder in the bagel dough for flavor. Almond Milk and Turmeric for a plant-based egg wash. Feel free to use any dairy-free milk you love. Keep in mind that turmeric is here for color, and can be skipped.

Expert Tips
Add flavors. If you are new to baked goods with almond flour, let me highlight that these bagels have a strong almond flavor. To cover it up, add 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or dried herbs like oregano to the dough. You can add tablespoons of coconut sugar and a teaspoon of cinnamon for sweet bagels. Don’t use thin yogurt. The bagel dough will be very wet and difficult to form. Measure the flour precisely. Fill the measuring cup and sweep the top, don’t overpack the cup to avoid adding too much almond flour.
