Ingredients
For the flagels
- 2 cups Baby spinach (Fresh spinach or thawed frozen, squeezed dry.)
- 1 large Egg (Use room temperature.)
- 1 cup All-purpose flour (For gluten-free, use a tested 1-to-1 blend.)
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 cup Cottage cheese (Small-curd recommended for a creamier bite.)
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese (Low-moisture is acceptable.)
Instructions
Preparation and Baking
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a bowl, mix the cottage cheese, mozzarella cheese, and spinach together until well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together the egg, olive oil, salt, and baking powder.
- Gradually add the flour to the wet mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
- Fold in the cheese and spinach mixture into the dough.
- Divide the dough into 6 equal parts and shape them into bagel-like rounds.
- Place the flagels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving.
