Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients

  • 1 cup self rising flour
  • 1 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 large egg for wash

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour and Greek yogurt. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 1 to 2 minutes until smooth. If the dough is sticky, add a small amount of flour as needed.
  • Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rope about 6 to 7 inches long, then join the ends and pinch to seal, forming a bagel shape.
  • Brush the tops of the bagels with the beaten egg. This helps create a golden, bakery-style finish.
  • Lightly grease the air fryer basket or line it with parchment paper. Arrange the bagels in a single layer, leaving space between them.
  • Air fry at 330°F (165°C) for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the bagels are puffed, golden brown, and cooked through.
  • Remove the bagels from the basket and let them cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • If the dough feels sticky while kneading, add flour 1 teaspoon at a time rather than adding too much at once.
  • Leave space between the bagels in the basket so they cook evenly and develop a better crust.
  • Let the bagels cool for a few minutes before slicing to help maintain their chewy texture.
