High Protein Bagel Bites
These high protein bagel bites pack in 37g of protein per serving! Easy to make and absolutely delicious, perfect for meal prepping too.
Ingredients
- ½ cup + 4 teaspoons vital wheat gluten
- ½ cup + 2 teaspoons all purpose or bread flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- ½ cup water
- 5 tablespoons vegan cream cheese divided
- 2 to 3 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C). *Please note this recipe makes 8 bagel bites in total, 4 per serving.
- In a medium bowl combine all the dry ingredients. If you would like to add in additional seasonings like garlic powder, onion powder, etc add in now as well.
- Then add in the apple cider vinegar and water. Mix together until you get a sticky, dough ball.
- Divide the dough into 8 even balls.
- Use your hands to flatten out the dough into about a 4 to 5 inch circle. Then scoop about 2 teaspoons (10g) of the vegan cream cheese into the middle of the dough. Use your hands to pull up the sides of the circle over top of each other. Then pinch the dough to seal it and roll into a ball. Dip and roll in the everything bagel seasoning if desired and place on a lined baking sheet. Repeat the process until all have been made.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
- Allow to cool for 10 minutes before eating.

Notes
- Nutrition facts are based on my gram measurements put into Cronometer. Yours may vary, they are to help you get an idea.
- Please do not repost recipes without my permission. Sharing a direct link is always highly encouraged and appreciated.
- I found 8 bagel bites to be the perfect size. If you would like to make them larger or smaller feel free to adjust.
- The recipe makes 2 servings (4 bagel bites).
- While I did not try air frying them I believe it would work fine. You can air fry them at 350°F (175°C) for 10 to 13 minutes.
- For the vegan cream cheese I suggest using Kite Hill. Some vegan cream cheeses are more coconut oil based and the vegan cream cheese may melt and spill out then. I do not recommend Violife for this recipe.
