Ingredients
Scale
- 3½ cups bread flour
- ¾ cup whey protein powder
- 2¼ teaspoons instant yeast
- 1¼ cups warm water
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1½ teaspoons salt
- ¾ cup raisins
- 2 quarts water
- 1 tablespoon honey or brown sugar
- ½ cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Combine warm water, yeast, and honey in a large mixing bowl. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.
- Stir in bread flour, protein powder, cinnamon, and salt until a shaggy dough forms.
- Add raisins and knead the dough by hand or with a dough hook for about 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it, and let it rise for about 45 minutes until it has doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Punch down the risen dough, divide it into 8 pieces, shape into balls, and poke a hole in the center.
- Bring 2 quarts of water and 1 tablespoon of honey to a gentle boil. Boil bagels for 45 seconds on each side.
- Remove the bagels with a slotted spoon and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the oven for 18–20 minutes until golden brown.
- Whisk together Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of cinnamon, then drizzle over cooled bagels before serving.
Notes
For softer bagels, allow the dough to rise overnight in the fridge. An air fryer can be used as a quicker cooking method if desired.
