Instructions

• In a bowl, combine 1 1/2 cup All Purpose Einkorn Flour and 2 tsp. Baking powder. Whisk together.
• Add in the 1 cup Small curd cottage cheese.
• Mix together until combined- you want the dough to be elastic, but not sticky. Cottage cheese can vary in consistency so you might need to add a little bit more flour- do this 1 tbsp. at a time.
• Cover with a light dish towel and let rest 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350f
• Roll into 6 balls and poke a hole through the middle. Stretch the hole out to create a ring.
• Place the rings on a parchment lined baking sheet.
• Whisk an egg in a small bowl.
• Use the basting brush and brush onto the bagel rings.
• Sprinkle with everything but the bagel salt.
• Bake at 350f for 12-15 minutes.
• Enjoy!

Notes
