These chewy fathead bagels only require 5 ingredients. If you miss bread on the Keto Diet you should try these little materpieces. They are an excellent mid-day meal or snack with smoked salmon, cream cheese and capers.
Preheat the oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Stir together the almond flour and baking powder. Set aside.
Combine the shredded mozzarella and cubed cream cheese in a large bowl. Microwave until melted enough to fully incorporate. Stir every 30 seconds and don't burn it or the cheese will seize. You can use a double boiler if you like instead of the microwave.
Stir the flour mixture and eggs into the melted cheese mixture. Mix with a dough hook in the kitchen aid or knead with oiled hands until the dough is completely uniform. THIS IS IMPORTANT.
Shape the dough into a disk and cut into six even pieces.
Shape each piece into a disk and poke your thumb through the middle to make a hole. Continue shaping your bagel.
Brush top with a little oil or butter and add sesame seeds or whatever topping you like.
Place on a parchment covered cookie sheet and bake for 12-14 minutes until golden and firm.
Let cool completely before slicing. You can toast if you like but the bread will be soft while it's hot because it's a tasty cheese based dough.
