Betty Crocker Cottage Cheese Protein Bagels

I can’t lie—I was skeptical of the cottage cheese bagel concept. Could I really make cottage cheese into a bagel? Well, I was pleasantly surprised by these—they’re hearty and soft with a bready interior that looks like an actual bagel. The egg gives the bagels their shine without having to boil them before baking, plus it allows any flavorings to adhere to the bagels. These are definitely more moist than a traditional bagel but that makes them really good, as is, no toppings or schmear needed! Bonus, these cottage cheese protein bagels come together in minutes and since they don’t contain yeast, they can be baked right away! No waiting for them to rise.
