I’m so excited to show you this Keto-friendly (low carb) gluten-free Bagel recipe, that is made of bamboo fiber. You will fall in love with these bagels as they are so soft on the inside, with the perfect amount of chewiness along with a deliciously crisp exterior. The whole family loves it! This is a game changer if you are on a low carb or gluten free diet.
How to make bamboo baking flour:
Full Recipe
170g coconut milk
2 tsp sugar free maple syrup
8g (2tsp) dried active yeast
100g bamboo baking flour (80g bamboo fiber and 20g powdered whole psyllium husk).
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp fine salt
50g unsalted butter
2 large room temperature eggs
Steps:
Heat 100g of coconut milk until just warm (not hot).
If you use coconut milk instead of almond milk, the bagels will be softer inside.
Pour 2 tsp of sugar free maple syrup into the milk (optional) and mix them.
Then blend 8g (2tsp) of dried active yeast with them and leave for 5-10 min to begin fermenting before use.
Measure 100g of bamboo baking flour (80g of bamboo fiber and 20g of powdered whole psyllium husk).
If you are not sure how to make this flour, watch my video about it.
Add 2 tsp of baking powder and
½ tsp fine salt and mix to combine.
Measure 50g of unsalted butter and melt it.
Crack 2 large room temperature eggs into another bowl.
Add the rest of coconut milk (70g) to them and whisk to combine.
Add the fermented yeast and finally
add the melted butter to the mixture.
Stir the dry and liquid ingredients with a spatula thoroughly.
Allow your dough to rest for a few minutes.
Knead the dough lightly with your hands for 5 minutes, use a silicone sheet as the dough is actually a little sticky.
Cut the dough for 6 pieces. (one is about 73g)
Shape each piece into a ball.
Flatten the dough a little bit with your palm.
Press your index finger through the center of each ball to make a hole about 1 inch in diameter.
Place the bagels into a baking sheet and loosely cover them with kitchen towel and rise for about 30 minutes.
Using a pastry brush, brush the egg wash on top and around the sides of each bagel.
Sprinkle them with everything bagel seasoning.
Bake them in the Air Fryer on 300F for 10 minutes at first.
Then 360F for 8-10 minutes.
You can bake them in your oven too. Put the bagels into cold oven and bake them on 300F for 20 min then 360F for 15-20 min.
Place the hot bagels onto a cooling rack and let them cool.

Now, having a harder time deciding what to try to make, lol! But cookies are still on my mind. Thank you. PS. Can I use avocado oil instead of melted butter, and do I really have to make a hole in the middle?
😊🥯😊
Hi Melinda! Guess what I made them today. I must say being that it was my first time, plus I'm just s-l-o-w, it took me longer than most I would say. I first made the mistake of using 100g of pure bamboo fiber for the dry, but I caught that, phew! Had to make more dry. Anyway, the dough came together like yours. Baked in the oven. The results are more like a soft roll. When I pull it apart, it looks like bread, taste good, but when I bite into it the bread kinda melts!? Idk how to explain. This result even happens when I make my Crusty Bread buns (Heavenly Fan's) with bamboo, flaxseed meal, almond flour and 40g whole psyllium husk. Wait, I just tried another one, which is totally cooled. Omg, so much better! Maybe it was because the roll I tried was too warm at time.
Melinda, this recipe is MARVELOUS! It doesn't have the bite or texture as a bagel, but it is pretty darn good! I am very pleased. I'm going to tell my friends right now!
THANK YOU, MELINDA ❤️
Is it chewy like a bagel?
I get so disappointed by low carb bagels. Usually they are just regular bread like without the hearty chewy texture of regular bagels.
Hello Melinda, Today I wanted to see if I could change up your recipe a little. Hope you don't mind, just a little.
I added 26g ground golden flaxseed, 2g (1/2 tsp) xanthan gum, and 2g (1/2 tsp) Everything Bagel Seasoning to the dry ingredients. I added 15g (1 Tb) apple cider vinegar to the oil and egg mixture. Then I ended up dividing the dough into 4 bagel buns and baking them at 300F for 24 mins, then 360F for another 24 mins. Oh yes, did the egg wash before baking.
They turned out delicious and a bit more substantial. My daughter and my husband gave it thumbs up😊!
PS. I have a picture coming.
@BambooLoveChannel Is the coconut milk used in this recipe the canned type commonly used in curries, or the thin carton type (similar to almond milk)?
Thank you
Oh my word !!!! Even though I did not bloom the yeast right , these were the answer to my prayers !!! Type 1 diabetic here and all I want are bread like items that won’t send the blood sugar sky high and here it is …THANK YOU ! Making the chocolate chip cookies next !
