Inspired by the fast and delicious Einstein Bros. Bagels menu, these copycat recipes for bagels, pastries, sandwiches and more will make you feel like you're there. Discover a cheesy alternative to the usual sweet bread brunch offerings.
These protein bagels can be whipped up and ready to eat in under 30 minutes and require only a few key ingredients, which has made them a staple in my weekend breakfast rotation. Protein bagels are my take on the infamous “two-ingredient” dough that you may have seen for various other recipes out there.
Even with the addition of protein powder into these bagels, the inside stays soft and tender, exactly the way a bagel should be… The only problem (if you can call it that) with this recipe is that the bagels may be higher in calories than you might like. Don’t worry, you can EASILY follow this same recipe to make 4 slightly smaller bagels!
When you turn this recipe into 4 protein bagels, the calories will be slightly lower, and the protein will still be plenty high. For 4 bagels instead of 3, each bagel will have 180 calories, 0g Fat, 30g Carbs, and 14g protein. The bagels will be slightly smaller than a traditional bagel, but still plenty big!
