Why You'll Love This

The coconut yogurt creates a tender crumb that stays fresh for days, and the recipe is naturally dairy-free without tasting like a compromise. Perfect for busy mornings when you want something substantial but it needs to be portable.

The Nutrition Profile

Each bagel delivers 13 grams of fiber, which is roughly half of what many women need daily. Fiber supports digestive health and helps keep blood sugar steady throughout the morning. As we age, getting adequate fiber becomes increasingly important for gut health and hormone metabolism.

The gluten-free flour blend provides complex carbohydrates for sustained energy without the inflammatory response that wheat can trigger for some people, even if they don’t have Crohn’s disease. These bagels also contain healthy fats from the olive oil, which helps with nutrient absorption and keeps you satisfied longer.

Overall, it’s a complete breakfast when topped with your favorite spread, or you can pair them with eggs or avocado for additional protein.

The Ingredient List

The star ingredient here is thick, unsweetened coconut yogurt. Look for brands like Culina or CocoJune that have that Greek yogurt consistency. Thinner coconut yogurts won't create the right dough texture, so if yours is runny, strain it through cheesecloth for an hour first.

Gluten-free flour substitutions: This recipe works best with a gluten-free all-purpose blend that includes xanthan gum. If your blend doesn't have it, add half a teaspoon.

Topping variations: No everything bagel seasoning? Use sesame seeds, poppy seeds, and flaky sea salt instead. You can also try cinnamon and coconut sugar for a sweet version, or dried herbs and garlic powder for an Italian twist.

If dairy isn't an issue for you, regular Greek yogurt works beautifully in this recipe and creates an even chewier texture.

The Practical Stuff

Store these at room temperature for up to three days or refrigerate them for slightly longer freshness.

For longer storage, slice them in half first, wrap each one tightly in parchment paper or foil, then pack them into a freezer bag. They'll keep for three months in the freezer. When you're ready to eat one, toast it straight from frozen for the best texture.

Make a double batch when you have the time and energy. Future you will thank you on those mornings when you need grab and go but don’t want something that’s ultra processed.

The Method

Start by preheating your oven to 375°F and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, and salt.

Add the coconut yogurt and stir until a slightly sticky dough forms. If it's too wet, add more flour one tablespoon at a time. If it's too dry, add more yogurt the same way.

Gather the dough into one ball and lightly dust your counter with flour. Divide the dough into four equal pieces and roll each into a smooth ball.

Place them on your prepared baking sheet, then gently press down on each ball to flatten it into a disc about three-quarters of an inch thick. Use your finger to poke a hole through the center of each one, then gently stretch and shape that hole until it's about one and a half inches wide.

Brush the olive oil over the top of each bagel and sprinkle generously with everything bagel seasoning. The oil helps the seasoning stick and creates that golden, slightly crispy exterior.

Bake for 27 to 30 minutes or until they're cooked through and golden brown on top. The bottoms should be firm and lightly browned.

Let them cool for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing. This cooling time is important as it lets the interior finish setting up. If you slice them too soon, they'll be gummy in the middle.

Why This Works

These bagels give you the satisfaction of fresh-baked bread without the time investment of traditional yeasted dough.

They're substantial enough to keep you full through a busy morning, gentle on sensitive stomachs, and freeze beautifully for those weeks when meal prep isn’t gonna happen.

The fiber content supports digestive health naturally, and the coconut yogurt base keeps them moist for days without refrigeration.
