One of our breakfast favorites is Banana Bread Chocolate Chip Muffins. This is a copycat Chrissy Teigen’s Banana Bread Muffin Recipe. The pudding mix, coconut oil and 5 bananas make these muffins addictive= you can’t eat just one!
Bacon Cheddar Bagel Ingredients:
- 2 cups Self-Raising Flour, plus additional for kneading
- 1 cup Greek Yogurt
- 1/2 cup Cheddar Cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup Chopped Bacon, approximately 4 slices
- 1 Egg White, optional
Note: egg white is optional to give the bagels a golden brown crunch exterior.
Bacon Cheddar Bagel Step-by-Step Directions:
Preheat oven to 475F
Set up your electric mixer with a kneading/paddle attachment, if you have one.
In the bowl of your electric mixer, combine the self-raising flour and yogurt,
Add the Cheddar Cheese.
Add the bacon.
Knead for 6 minutes until a ball forms. Add additional self-raising flour as needed. (The moisture of your yogurt may affect the exact quantities.)
If you don’t have an electric mixer, you will need to knead the dough by hand for the 6 minutes.
Once the dough forms a cohesive, elastic ball of dough, remove it from the bowl and place on a work space dusted with additional flour.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions.
Form each portion of dough into a bagel. Make them wider with a bigger hole than a normal bagel as they will get smaller with baking.
Place the formed bagels onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Brush the bagels with the egg white, if desired.
Sprinkle on additional cheese and chopped bacon, if desired.
Bake for 10-14 minutes, until tops of bagels are golden brown.
Makes 6.
How to Store:
Store in a Ziploc Bag at room temperature for a few days. Toasts well when Refrigerated for 7 days. We had great luck freezing the bagels in Ziploc Bags. I would recommend using them within 4 months.
