In the mood for a bagel? I’d seen this hack a bunch of times, but totally got it wrong the first time—I made it per the packet instructions and the batter was too thin. So, to get a solid “bagel” you add two tablespoons of egg whites and a pinch of baking powder per smashed potato packet. I made two packets at a time and added an extra tablespoon of water. It was just too thick otherwise. I then sprayed Pam into my silicone donut mold and sprinkled a little everything bagel seasoning at the bottom. That way, you get seasoning on all sides. I placed the mixture inside two molds and then topped with a bit more bagel seasoning.

Bake in an oven for 12-15 minutes at 350. Then, remove, slice and either air fry for a few minutes or pop into a toaster to get it super crispy. Top with whatever you’d like—just be sure to account for it from your daily allotted leans/greens/fats/condiments.

Enjoy! 🥯🥯🥯
