Here we go…

Ingredients

125 grams (1 cup) self rising flour
237 grams (1 cup) non-fat or whole milk Greek yogurt
1 large egg
everything bagel seasoning, coarse salt, sesame seeds, etc. optional toppings

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
To a medium mixing bowl, add the flour and greek yogurt. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to stir together until nearly combined. It will be crumbly.
Lightly flour a clean surface and add the dough, kneading together mostly fully combined. Don’t overwork it, it will be sticky and crumbly.
Divide the dough into 4 equal balls and gently shape each into a rope, then connect to ends, stretching slightly to shape into a bagel. Lay each onto the prepared baking sheet.
To a small bowl, use a fork to whisk the egg. Use a pastry brush to brush both sides of the bagels.
Sprinkle with your choice of seasonings and bake for 25 minutes: everything bagel seasoning, coarse salt, sesame seeds, etc.
Let cool for at least 15 minutes and then slice and enjoy.
