INGREDIENTS:

1 CUP SELF-RISING FLOUR

1 CUP PLAIN GREEK YOGURT (I PREFER FAGE 2% FOR THE PERFECT CONSISTENCY)

1/2 tsp salt

1 Jalapeno, (half diced and the other half thinly sliced)

½ cup shredded cheddar (I used a lite shredded cheddar to reduce fats)

1 egg, beaten (you will only use 1/3 of it)

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place parchment paper on a baking sheet.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, yogurt, and salt and mix until a dough forms. Add in diced jalapenos and cheddar cheese. Mix with hands until dough is well-combined and no longer sticky.

3. On a floured surface, knead dough for 2-3 minutes. Roll into a big ball. Cut into 4 even sections.

4. Roll each section into a snake shape and bring both ends together to form a bagel shape. Pinch and place on parchment paper.

5. Brush tops with egg mixture. Sprinkle with a little more cheese and sliced jalapenos. Bake for 18-22 minutes.

6. To serve, slice in half, toast, and add toppings of choice.
