Ingredients & Substitutions
Here is everything you need to make the best greek yogurt bagels with blueberries recipe:
Oat Flour: You can use store-bought oat flour or grind your own. You can also replace it with brown rice flour.
Gluten-Free Flour: Any all-purpose gluten-free flour blend (without xanthan gum) will do. If you’re not gluten-free, you can use regular all-purpose flour.
Additional Flour Options and Measurements: You may need to adjust these measurements slightly to achieve the same dough consistency shown in the video. The dough should be slightly sticky when touched. If it’s too sticky, add more flour. If the dough is too dry, add more greek yogurt.
| FLOUR | MEASUREMENT |
|---|---|
| Oat Flour | 3/4 cup |
| Almond Flour | 1 cup almond flour + 1/4 cup tapioca flour |
| Gluten-Free Flour (w/o xanthan gum) | 2/3 cup |
| All Purpose Flour | 2/3 cup |
| Cassava Flour | 2/3 cup |
| Brown Rice Flour | 3/4 cup |
Greek Yogurt: This recipe requires plain greek yogurt. Regular yogurt is not thick enough. You can use a dairy-free thick greek yogurt if needed.
Maple Syrup: Honey or agave syrup would work just as well here if you prefer a different natural sweetener.
Vanilla Extract: Feel free to use vanilla bean paste if you want a richer vanilla flavor.
Almond Extract: If you’re not a fan of almond, skip it or replace it with more vanilla extract for a more subtle flavor.
Baking Powder: This is necessary for the bagels to rise.
Salt: Any sea salt or kosher salt will work here, so use what you have on hand.
Blueberries: Fresh or frozen blueberries both work, or you could try raspberries or blackberries for a fun twist! You can also use dried blueberries which are similar in texture to raisins. I prefer to use frozen wild blueberries because they are smaller in size.
How to Make My Gluten-Free Blueberry Bagels Recipe
Here are easy, detailed, step-by-step instructions for making my easy chocolate chip pumpkin muffin recipe. The instructions are also repeated in the recipe card at the bottom of this blog post.
Step 1: Make the Bagel Dough
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium bowl, add the wet ingredients, including 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1/8 teaspoon of almond extract. Stir until smooth.
Add the dry ingredients, including 1/2 cup of oat flour, 1/4 cup of gluten-free flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
Stirring until a dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky when touched.
Gently fold in 1/4 cup of fresh, frozen, or dried blueberries. The more you stir them, the more purple color will be spread throughout the dough.
Step 2: Shape the Bagels
Divide the ball of dough into 4 equal pieces. Pour some olive oil on your hands to keep the dough from sticking and roll each portion into a ball and gently press into a round shape on the cookie sheet. Press your thumb through the center of each ball to create a hole.
Separate an egg yolk from the egg white and brush the egg white for an egg wash on top of the bagels. Optional: Sprinkle turbinado sugar over the bagels.
Step 3: Bake the Bagels
Bake for 24-27 minutes, or until the tops of the bagels are golden brown and cooked through.
Allow the bagels to cool slightly on a wire rack before slicing. You can serve them warm or at room temperature.
Helpful Recipe Notes
Flour Adjustments: If your dough feels too sticky, gradually add more flour, one tablespoon at a time, until it reaches a manageable consistency. If the dough is too dry, add more greek yogurt.
Frozen Blueberries: If you’re using frozen blueberries, no need to thaw them first! Just toss them in frozen. You can adjust the amount of blueberries to your liking.
Dried Blueberries: If you’re using dried blueberries, you can add more purple color by warming up 1 tablespoon of frozen blueberries, mashing them with a fork to release the syrup, and then stirring the mashed blueberries in with the bagel batter.
Sweetness: If you prefer your bagels less sweet, reduce the maple syrup to 1 tablespoon.
Bagel Size: This recipe makes about 4 small to medium-sized bagels. You can make fewer larger bagels. You will need to increase the baking time slightly.
