Have you seen the infamous 2 ingredient bagels out there? Like many of you, I was intrigued but knew with gluten-free baking to get the same result we needed to play with it a bit. Homemade bagels are coming your way today!
So the 2 ingredient bagels have turned into 5 ingredient Gluten-Free Bagels. No yeast needed but see whatother ingredients that you’ll need!
- Gluten-Free Flour Blend
- Whole Fat Plain Yogurt
- Egg
- Baking Soda
- Salt
While I haven’t gotten the chance to test this recipe out with dairy-free yogurt alternative I’d imagine it works with a coconut yogurt. If you try it that way, please let us know how it goes by the comments below or tagging us @veggiebalance.
How to Makebagels is rather simple after that.
- mix in a bowl – Create a well into the center of your dry ingredients for your wet ingredients. This will help with combining the ingredients together correctly without overmixing
- roll into bagels on a well-floured surface. You will need to kneed the dough a bit to form a round ball and split into four sections. You can make them however small or large just keep in mind of the baking times may vary.
- bake!
- Hello homemade gluten-free bagels. I love you.
It’s a no-yeast dough that can be used in numerous ways!
- Pizza (of course) is the first thing that comes to mind. Ilove my low-carb pizza but really any pizza is my jam. Like these bell pepper pizzas.
- Rolls
- Pretzels
- Bagels
- OH! WHAT ABOUT PIZZA BAGELS!?! Ok, thats next.
Does this 5 ingredient dough entirely replace all doughs? No, I’d still prefer my gluten-free drop biscuits, pass me the butter and watch me to go my happy place, face all stuffed with biscuits.
But if you are looking for something a tad bit healthier, simple and a quick way to curb your craving, this dough is perfect since it requires no yeast whatsoever.
I hadn’t had proper onion and poppy seed bagels in almost 5 years. This was my chance and it was everything my heart so desperately desired. I LOVE LOVE LOVE onion bagels.
Is there a flavor of bagel you’ve been missing that you can’t buy gluten-free? This is your chance.
- Poppyseed
- Cinnamon Raisin
- Everything Bagels
Any of flavor that I’m forgetting?
Look no further if you’ve been eyeing that 2 ingredient dough getting tossed around the internet. If you tried it and were disappointed, the egg and whole fat yogurt from my experience will turn your opinion around and have you making gluten-free bagels in no time.
Tips to making the perfect bagelswhen making from scratch.
- Do not over mix the dough. It’s best if you use a fork while mixing it together. It’ll help combine quicker then if using a spoon which can sometimes can over mix the dough.
- Whip your egg before adding to the dough.
- How long to bake those bagels? Depending on the size of your bagels and oven the outside may be cooked but the inside slightly uncooked. The best way I found to avoid this from happening is cooking with the information below and if they are slightly uncooked place them back into the oven with the temperature off on the bottom oven rack. Allow them to sit in there for about5-10 minutes. This should help bake them chewy on the inside and a browned inside without burning.

I tried this with almond milk yogurt, but it’s been an experiment. They come out rock hard outside and barely cooked inside. I need to play with cooking times/temperatures I think because I followed a different recipe for 400 degrees over a shorter time. Need to try this version!

I make this with variations,
1 c. Gluten free flour
1 1/2 tsp. Vinegar
1/2 tsp. Salt
3/4 c. Applesauce
1/4 c. Almond milk. (Depends on the type of flour may need more, may need less. So, i add it slowly)
The texture and taste are great, though the applesauce choice makes it a Tish sweet.
And I brush with almond milk for the sheen.
Thank you for the recipe!!!Reply

Super yummy! I tried these today the texture was good soft on the inside but chewy in the outside. The flavor was also better then I expected! They are also very easy to make. I only ended up baking them for 25 minutes at 375 degrees. Only criticism is the calorie content is incorrect. I’m going to try making these in a donut pan next time for a more uniform look.

Sadly, mine didn’t work out and I don’t know why. I used Krusteaz gluten free flour(since i had it). Mine were really dense, hard and a little salty/tangyish. I dunno what happened. The taste wasn’t too tangy, but they didn’t taste like bagels. Good luck with your other recipes! God bless!

I can’t speak for this recipe with Krusteaz flour unfortunately.

I am new to the GF life and have been having the biggest craving for bagels! I tried this recipe, but used lactose free 0% fat yogurt and Red Mill white rice flour. Coming fresh out the oven, they appeared well cooked on the outside but slightly undercooked on the inside, so I put one in the toaster. I think I may need to combine the white rice flour with some other ingredients to make it a GF flour blend. Thought they turned out quite well for my first time ever making anything GF. I do wonder how long these bagels will last though?
Thanks!

Hi! Can I use spelt flour as a sub for the gluten free flour blend?
