Start your day with the great taste of an everything bagel! These Everything Protein Bagels have great macros, and are gluten-free!

When I first bought this donut pan, I kept thinking it would be great for bagels. And I was right! :) But as a New York City girl, I need to put a disclaimer on this recipe. These aren’t comparable to the big, doughy New York City bagels. I mean, c’mon, this isn’t magic. It’s protein baking. However, if you’re trying to hit specific macros and want the taste of an everything bagel, this is your recipe!

I used Quest Multi-Purpose protein powder for this recipe. It bakes so well! And this is their unflavored version, so there isn’t any sucralose. All-natural! I also used Quest Brown Rice powder, which bakes up super-fluffy! (Update: It seems Quest has discontinued the brown rice powder. I think this brown rice flour would work well in its place.)

The key to these Everything Protein Bagels is, of course, the topping. This one by Trader Joe’s is very popular, but you can also get other brands on Amazon at better prices per ounce. Whichever you use, these bagels will be delicious!

Enjoy your new favorite breakfast, Everything Protein Bagels!

Makes 6 bagels.

Ingredients

• 4 large egg whites (132g)
• 1 cup Quest Multi-Purpose Mix protein powder (72g)
• ½ cup almond meal (56g)
• 1 teaspoon baking powder (4g)
• ⅛ teaspoon sea salt (0.75g)
• ¼ cup brown rice flour (23g)
• 2 tablespoons filtered water (30ml)
• 2 tablespoons everything bagel topping (22g)
• non-stick cooking spray (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 325F (163C).
2. Except for the topping, mix all ingredients until combined.
3. Spoon batter into a ziplock bag, and cut off the corner (see this video).
4. Spray the silicone donut/bagel pan with non-stick cooking spray (to simulate the crispier bagel surface).
5. Pipe batter into pan.
6. Spray top of bagels with more non-stick spray.
7. Spoon 1 teaspoon topping on each bagel.
8. Bake for 16-18 minutes, just until firm. Don't over bake!
9. Enjoy! Store extras in the refrigerator.

Notes

I estimated the macros for the topping, since the package says no protein, carbs, or fat (for such a small serving). I also included macros for the non-stick spray as 1 teaspoon oil since we're using a bit more of that, too.

A note about substitutions: because each type of protein powder has a distinct flavor and texture when baked, I expect the results to be different for a powder that is all whey (Quest is whey+casein). If you want to use all whey, see my Protein Oat Bread recipe and use that as a base.
