Ingredients

60 grams coconut flour about 1/2 cup
2 tablespoon aluminum-free baking powder can be cut in half to reduce sodium, but will result in flatter bagels
250 grams mozzarella cheese shredded (about 2-1/2 cups)
55 grams cream cheese 2 ounces
3 large eggs beaten
2 tablespoons butter melted (add a bit more if needed and use unsalted to reduce sodium)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
Mix coconut flour and baking powder in a small bowl. Set aside.
Melt mozzarella cheese and cream cheese in microwave on high power for one minute. Stir. Place back in microwave on high for another minute. Stir.
Using hands or dough hooks, mix in beaten eggs, butter, and coconut flour mixture until a dough is formed. Dough should be a bit wet and sticky. If dry, try adding in another egg or more butter.
Divide dough into 6 pieces and roll out each piece connecting the ends to form a bagel shape. Dough is easier to work with if hands are wet.
Place bagels on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Bake at 400°F for about 12-16 minutes or until lightly browned.

Notes

Each bagel has about 4g net carbs. If using baking SODA, reduce the amount to 2 teaspoons.

Reader mentions the following add-ins to help prevent the bagels from flattening during baking and add flavor: Add a tablespoon almond flour… A tablespoon nutritional yeast flakes… Seasonings of garlic and onion powder and about a teaspoon of Xanthan powder…. Another reader notes that a hard tack consistency can be achieved by putting them in a low temp oven (210°F) for 4-5 hours after the bagels cool.
