Here’s some answers to the questions everyone is asking!
Are bagels keto?
They DEFINITELY can be! There are many versions and you really have to decide which you like the most. Some people really enjoy fathead dough and this is very close. BUT, the yeasty deliciousness of these are SOOOO much better!
Can you buy keto bagels?

How to make keto bagels with almond flour? Keto bagels with coconut flour?
This recipe was originally made with coconut flour, which produces an amazing bagel or roll. I also tested with an almond flour substitute. The almond flour works perfectly as well, it is just slightly more dense in texture.
How long do these Keto bagels store for?
They will keep in a sealed bag, on the counter for 2-3 days. Otherwise I would store in the fridge for maybe a week (not that they will last that long) or freeze for later.
Can you make keto bagels without eggs?
I haven’t attempted to (yet), but you can check out this link that has great info on replacements.

Notes
You can sub almond flour for the coconut flour: 2 cups almond flour
These can be made as buns, bagels or rolls (see photos)! The texture will still be nice and chewy any way you want to make them.
If the Inulin isn’t available- others say using a tsp of sugar is acceptable, as the yeast will eat it to activate. I chose to use the inulin as a better option.
Add an egg wash brushed over top before baking, for a little extra browning.

Can you sub inulin with erythritol or monk fruit?
Pretty sure the inulin is there to feed the yeast. Erythritol and monk fruit won’t do it. You could accomplish this with real maple syrup (about a teaspoon) or real sugar, maybe 1/2 teaspoon. I haven’t made this recipe, but this is based on other yeasted roll recipes I’ve seen and tried.
Can ou use another type of sweetener like monk fruit or erythritol, instead of inulin? Really need to find a good bagel/bread recipe

Thanks, these are awesome!
Did you all use coconut flour or almond… it states above that the almond is more dense but 2 cups were used over 3/4cup of coconut…my research has always said almond was less dense…looking for some input
This looks so good! I’m definitely going to try this someday! Thanks for sharing!
Is there a trick to getting the egg and cheese well incorporated?
This looks simple and delicious! I can’t wait to try this on the weekend. Thank you so much for sharing!
I am thinking there should be a second proofing after the dough is rolled like you would with normal dough?? as my dough proofed beautifully, but didn’t really rise in the oven.
Will try that next time to try and get more of a rise.
