It is no secret that I am a Weight Watchers member, but other ways of losing weight do interest me, and it can be fun to learn about! I have two girlfriends that are rocking the Keto diet and lifestyle. Whenever we get together and plan meals we make sure it plan food that will work for everyone so even though I am not on Keto I still know what they should and shouldn’t eat, and they do as well for me. **Be sure to consult a doctor before starting any new diet or exercise regime, and don’t forget what works for one may not work for another person. (I have included links to some great products that I have bought on my own and we love. You can buy them as well through my online sales links)

If you are not sure what Keto is, the diet is basically a low carb diet, high fat, and moderate protein food choices. That means bread, sugar, fruit, and high starch vegetables are a no go. Now like Weight Watchers eggs are unlimited and bread on Weight Watchers with carbs are high points so one we tend to avoid foods like bagels, same for those on Keto. Finding food that you can work into replace the food you love is a win! Now I did try these and they do taste like a bagel, I was truly surprised, however, these bagels are high points for Weight Watchers (11 Smartpoints when I plugged it in). I’ve been tempted to try Keto but with my pickiness on food I like, I don’t think I would be able to sustain the diet long term.

Easy Low Carb Keto Bagels Directions:

Now Katie knew she would love these so we made a double batch so we could also try our hand at pretzels as well so we just doubled the ingredients above and went to town making bagels. I have to say cooking with friends always makes the experience more fun and a great way to get things done while socializing.

Start out by preheating your oven to 425 degrees

In a bowl beat one large egg for your egg wash

In a bigger bowl combine together your almond flour and baking powder and sift together

Next, add your 2 eggs to the flour mixture and combine together well, Katie used her hands it was so much easier to do that way. We used a large Pyrex food storage bowl for this part, this was just the intro to Katie how much of a Pyrex obsession I have.

In a microwave-safe bowl place your cheese and cream cheese. Now my Pyrex love affair is no secret, however, I may have gotten Katie jonesing for pick up her own 8 cup Pyrex measuring cup. This bowl held the double batch like a champ and was perfect for this recipe, I wasn’t surprised at all though.

Microwave the cheese for 1 minute and 30 seconds and then mix

Return to the microwave for a 1 minute and mix again

Repeat until the mixture is well combined

Dump in the dough mixture into the cheese mixture and mix until everything is mixed well, Katie used her hands as well for this step. If the dough isn’t workable just pop it back in the microwave to soften it up more

Make a log or roll out of your dough and cut into even pieces, we cut ours into twelve since we made a double batch

Now I am not the best at shaping dough so we cheated and I ordered a 3 pack of Silicone doughnut pans on Amazon for under $15 (you can gram them ->here) to make these in, don’t worry we are making a Weight Watcher bagel next week. Now if you remember my Weight Watchers Lemon Muffins I have a bit of an obsession with silicone pans, goes well with Pyrex as well.

Once you have your dough in the mold, use a pastry brush to do an egg wash on top of each bagel, and sprinkle with Everything But The Bagel Sesame Seasoning.

Bake in oven for about 12-15 minutes at 425 degrees

Remove from oven when done. I have to say Oven gloves are amazing when using silicone, you can hold the pan so much better.

Allow to cool and then remove from pan

Cut open the bagel and enjoy, you can eat with cream cheese or add in an egg to make a breakfast sandwich!!

The perfect way to fix the bread craving and add a change up your eggs as well!! What is your go-to low carb breakfast item?
