Instructions
Follow these simple steps to make your Irresistibly Easy Spinach Cottage Cheese Flagels:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cottage cheese, chopped spinach, and egg. Mix well to combine.
3. Add Dry Ingredients: Sprinkle in the flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir until a dough forms.
4. Knead the Dough: Lightly flour your work surface and knead the dough for about 1-2 minutes until it’s smooth.
5. Shape the Flagels: Divide the dough into equal portions (about 4-6). Shape each portion into a round ball and then flatten it slightly. Make a hole in the center, creating a bagel shape.
6. Place on Baking Sheet: Transfer the shaped flagels onto the prepared baking sheet.
7. Optional Topping: Sprinkle sesame seeds on top for added flavor and texture.
8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
