Can I bake instead of air frying?

Yes — bake at 375°F for 12–15 minutes . Keep an eye on them the first time.

How much protein per bite?

Depending on your protein powder and Greek yogurt, expect about 7–10 g per bite . Adjust with your ingredients to hit your target.

Absolutely. If you don’t need gluten-free, regular all-purpose flour works and may give a slightly chewier result.

Likely undercooked or overly wet yogurt. Strain yogurt in cheesecloth for 20–30 minutes to remove excess whey, or add a touch more flour.

Yes — they’re a hit. Pack with fruit and a small dip for a balanced box.

Tiny, protein-packed bagel puffs filled with a creamy dollop of cream cheese — ready in minutes and perfect for breakfasts, snacks, or lunchboxes.

Scale

In a bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, protein powder, and salt until evenly combined.
Add the Greek yogurt and stir until a tacky, cohesive dough forms. It should be sticky but workable.
Lightly flour your work surface. Divide the dough into 10 even portions and roll each into a smooth ball.
Flatten a piece in your palm, place about 1 teaspoon of cream cheese in the center, then pull the edges up and seal so the filling is enclosed. Roll gently to re-form a ball.
If you like a shiny finish, brush each bite with the beaten egg; alternatively, use a quick spray of oil. Generously sprinkle Everything But The Bagel seasoning on top.
Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes.
Arrange the bagel bites in the basket with a little space between them and cook for 5–6 minutes, or until they turn golden brown.
Let them rest briefly so the filling cools a touch, then serve warm.

Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
To freeze: flash-freeze on a tray, transfer to a freezer bag, and store up to 3 months.
Reheat from frozen in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 4–5 minutes, or warm from the fridge in the air fryer for 2–3 minutes (timing varies by appliance).
