• 4 C shredded mozerella cheese
• 2 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 1/2 C almond flour
• 2 t baking powder
• 1/4 C 1:1 stevia powder
• 3 large eggs
• 1 t poppy seeds

• 1 t garlic powder
• 1 t onion flakes
• 1/2 t kosher salt

Instructions

1. 1

   In a microwave safe bowl, heat the cream cheese and shredded mozerella on high for about 2 minutes and combine them well.

2. 2

   Combine the almond flour, baking powder, and stevia in a mixing bowl and stir until uniformly mixed.

3. 3

   Stir in 2 of the eggs and then the melted cheeses. Knead this mixture with a stiff spatula until all the ingredients have incorporated and you can't see cheese or almond flour granules.

4. 4

   Divide the dough into 12 equal parts. Roll each portion of the dough between the lightly greased palms of your hands into a long cylinder that is 1/2 inch in diameter and about 12 inches long. Cross the the ends together to form a bagel. Place the bagels on a parchment lined baking sheet so they are not touching.

5. 5

   Beat one egg in a small bowl and get out your pastry brush. Mix the dry seasonings listed for the Everything seasoning in a separate small bowl. Brush the surface of each bagel with the egg wash and sprinkle liberally with the Everything seasoning.

6. 6

   Bake at 350 F for 20 to 25 minutes or until they are light golden brown. Let them cool on the pan or remove them to a rack. Serve warm with butter or cream cheese. Makes about 12 bagels.
