Pepperoni Pizza Bagels

Yields: 12 mini bagels

Ingredients:

For the Bagels:

  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • 2 ½ cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • 3 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 egg white, beaten with a little water (for brushing)
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • Flavorless oil (for handling the dough)

For the Pizza Toppings:

  • 2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • ¾ cup mini pepperoni
  • ½ tsp garlic salt
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
  • 6 oz can tomato paste

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the Bagels:
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, combine shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for 1 minute, stir, then microwave for 30 seconds more until melted.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Add beaten eggs and mix well.
  • Add melted cheese mixture to the almond flour mixture. Stir until thoroughly combined. If the dough becomes difficult to mix, microwave for 10 seconds to soften.
  • Divide the dough into 12 portions and shape each into a ball. Using oiled hands, form each ball into a bagel shape with a hole in the center. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Brush the tops of the bagels with beaten egg white.
  1. Bake the Bagels:
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
  1. Prepare the Pizza Toppings:
  • Increase oven temperature to 450°F (230°C).
  • In a bowl, mix tomato paste with enough water to make 1 cup of sauce. Stir in garlic salt, oregano, parsley, and chopped basil.
  1. Assemble and Bake:
  • Slice each bagel in half horizontally. Spread pizza sauce on the cut sides of each bagel half.
  • Top with shredded mozzarella cheese and mini pepperoni.
  • Place bagels back on the baking sheet and bake for an additional 7-10 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  1. Serve:
  • Serve immediately while warm and gooey.
