    How to Make Everything Bagel Bites

    First, this dough is my 3 Ingredient Pizza Dough recipe. I took out the salt since I found there is plenty in the everything bagel seasoning, and added some baking powder to help them rise and be light and fluffy.

    1. In a large bowl add the flour, greek yogurt, and baking powder. Mix with a spatula until everything comes together. PRO TIP: I like to put on kitchen gloves and used my hands to mix the last little bit at the end.
    2. Sprinkle the counter with some flour and dump out the dough onto the floured surface. Knead the dough for about a minute with your hands, adding more flour if you need to prevent sticking to the counter. 
    3. Form the dough into a round ball. Using a knife or bench scraper, slice the dough evenly down the middle. Then split each half in half. Finally cut each quarter into 4 equal size dough pieces. This will give you 16 equally sized dough balls.
    4. Remove the cream cheese from the fridge (it helps to keep it chilled to make it easier to cut). Slice off 1 ounce of cream cheese off the block. Cut down the middle longways, making 2 long strips of cream cheese. Then cut into 4ths. This will give you 8 small cubes. Repeat with the other ounce of cream cheese.
    5. Take a dough ball and flatten into a flat round circle. Place a cube of cream cheese in the middle. Bring all the sides up around the cream cheese and use your fingers to pinch the edges together sealing the dough ball. Roll around in your hands so that the dough is a round ball. Repeat with the remaining 15 dough balls.
    6. Place the filled balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place an egg in a small bowl and whisk. Use a pastry brush to brush the tops of each dough ball.
    7. Sprinkle each egg-washed dough ball with everything bagel seasoning. Use as much or as little as you prefer, but personally I like a lot of tops.
    8. Bake and Enjoy!

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Where can I Buy Everything Bagel Seasoning?

    Most grocery stores carry this now. It will be located in the spice aisle.
    Costco is my favorite place to get it because you get SO MUCH for your money. So if you eat this like crazy, get it there. If not, Trader Joe's has the perfect small-size jar of it!

    Description

    Everything Bagel Bites are small nuggets of heaven stuffed with melty cream cheese that is going to have you singing love songs till the end of time! They are bite-size and the perfect carb and cheese delight in which you won't be able to stop at just one!


    Ingredients

    Scale
    • 1 Cup Flour
    • 1 Cup Non-fat Plain Greek Yogurt
    • 1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
    • 2 Ounces Cream Cheese
    • 1 Egg
    • Everything Bagel Seasoning

    Instructions

    1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
    2. In a large bowl add the flour, greek yogurt, and baking powder. Mix with a spatula until everything comes together. This is a thick and sticky dough. I like to put on kitchen gloves and used my hands to mix the last little bit at the end.
    3. Sprinkle the counter with some flour and dump out the dough onto the floured surface. Knead the dough for about a minute with your hands, adding more flour if you need to prevent it from sticking to the counter. 
    4. Form the dough into a round ball. Using a knife or bench scraper, slice the dough evenly down the middle. Then split each half in half. Finally cut each quarter into 4 equal size dough pieces. This will give you 16 equally sized dough balls.
    5. Remove the cream cheese from the fridge (it helps to keep it chilled to make it easier to cut). Slice off 1 ounce of cream cheese off the block. Cut down the middle longways, making 2 long strips of cream cheese. Then cut into 4ths. This will give you 8 small cubes. Repeat with the other ounce of cream cheese.
    6. Take a dough ball and flatten into a flat round circle. Place a cube of cream cheese in the middle. Bring all the sides up around the cream cheese and use your fingers to pinch the edges together sealing the dough ball. Roll around in your hands so that the dough is a round ball. Repeat with the remaining 15 dough balls.
    7. Place the filled balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place an egg in a small bowl and whisk. Use a pastry brush to brush the tops of each dough ball.
    8. Sprinkle each egg-washed dough ball with everything bagel seasoning. Use as much or as little as you prefer, but personally I like a lot of tops.
    9. Place in the oven and bake for 25 minutes. 
    10. Remove once finished. Let cool for 5 minutes then enjoy!

    Notes

    • These are best enjoyed warm. You can definitely enjoy at room temp, the cream cheese just won't be melty and warm. If you keep leftovers and want to warm back up, pop in the microwave for 5-10 seconds.

      Made these with Gluten free flour (cup4cup) and they were amazing! So happy they turned out and I have the taste of everything bagels back in my life (it’s been about 15 years)!

      Hey! Wondering if using full fat Greek yogurt would cause any issues with the recipe?

        Yes, definitely. Make it completely and let it cool. Put them on a baking sheet and flash freeze for 30 minutes and then store them in a freezer-safe bag for 3-4 months. Thaw in the fridge for 24 hours - pop in the microwave for 10 seconds to warm, if desired.
