Description
Pumpkin bagels are made with a “fathead” dough, spiced with pumpkin pie spice and finished with roasted pumpkin seeds.
Ingredients
For the Bagels:
2 1/2 cups or 290 grams grated mozzarella cheese
1 cup or 100 grams almond flour
1/4 cup or 60 grams pumpkin puree
1 large egg or 45 grams
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
pinch of kosher salt
Garnish:
Pepitas or other pumpkin seeds, pecans, or walnuts.
Instructions
In a large microwave safe bowl weigh or measure the mozzarella cheese, almond flour and pumpkin pie spice. Mix the ingredients together and place in the microwave for one minute. Remove the bowl and stir the ingredients together using a fork. Return the bowl to the microwave and cook an additional 45 seconds. Remove and stir the ingredients.
Allow the mixture to sit and rest for at least 5 minutes to cool. Once you can safely handle the dough, add the pumpkin puree and egg. Knead the “dough” until the egg and pumpkin are fully incorporated.
Have the oven preheated to 350° and baking pan prepared with parchment paper.
Divide the dough in half and then each half into thirds. Roll the dough in long 1-inch-long ropes and bring the ends together. Garnish with your choice of nuts and bake in the oven 16-17 minutes.
