My latest obsession is cottage cheese bagels which are so easy to make and, in their simplest form, only have 2 ingredients – cottage cheese and flour! I’ve started experimenting with the recipe and got some great results. They have more protein than your average bagel and no emulsifiers or preservatives. They freeze well and are great sliced in half then toasted the next day.
You can scan this QR code to see the original recipe then I’ll show you my adaptations below.
Pictured below are these three versions:
- Wholewheat and sesame – use half wholewheat flour and put sesame seeds on top
- Cinnamon and raisin – add a tablespoon of cinnamon to the dough then knead in a large handful of raisins
- Mature cheddar and Parmesan – add a large handful of grated cheddar to the dough then add finely grated Parmesan on top
