- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- oil (Flavorless
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese
- 3/4 cup pepperoni (at room temperature)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon parsley
- 1 tablespoon fresh basil
- 6 ounces tomato paste
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 2 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 3 ounces cream cheese (at room temperature)
- 2 eggs (beaten)
- 1 egg whites (at room temperature)
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese
- 3/4 cup pepperoni (at room temperature)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon parsley
- 1 tablespoon fresh basil
- 6 ounces tomato paste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F Place the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese in a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 1 minute.
- Stir and microwave for 30 seconds or until both are melted.
- Add the almond flour and baking powder in a bowl and whisk together to combine.
- Add in the 2 beaten eggs and mix.
- Then add in the mozzarella and cream cheese and combine.
- As the cheese cools, it can become more difficult to mix, so if that happens, microwave the dough for 10 seconds and it should be easier to mix.
- The dough will be very sticky, so be sure to oil your hands to make forming the bagels easier.
- Divide the dough into 12 balls and poke your finger in the center, then using both index fingers, widen the center hole until you have a bagel shape (see video).
- I made smaller holes (unlike regular bagels), since we will be topping these with pizza sauce.
- You can also roll these out into logs, then form into bagels, I just prefer this method, it’s how I used to make regular bagels before Keto.
- Place bagels on a baking sheet lined with a Silpat or parchment paper.
- Brush the tops lightly with the beaten egg white.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops have browned nicely.
- Remove the bagels and allow to cool slightly, while you mix the pizza sauce.
- Turn the oven up to 450F and move the rack to the top slot in the oven.
- Add enough water into the tomato paste to make 1 cup of sauce and mix.
- Add in the garlic salt, oregano, parsley, and basil, mix to combine.
- Cut the bagels in half and spread some pizza sauce over the top.
- Add mozzarella cheese and pepperoni (or other toppings) and bake for an additional 7-10 minutes at 450F or until the cheese is melted.
- Serve immediately.
