Easy Air Fryer 2 Ingredient Bagels
I have debated making bagels in the past, but waiting for the dough to rise, then boiling, followed by baking seemed a little tedious. When I came across the 2 ingredient bagel idea, I knew it was something my husband and I would love and weight watcher bagel. Tender, soft, and delicious bagels in a fraction of the time!
How to make air fryer bagels
- In a small mixing bowl, rising flour and greek yogurt
- Knead the dough
- Shape into bagel form on a lightly floured surface
- Brush each bagel with egg wash
- Sprinkle everything with bagel seasoning or sesame seeds
- Air fry bagels for 15 minutes
Bagels Expand
Just remember when you are baking these bagels, they will expand as they bake. Make sure to leave room between them in the basket so they don’t touch. If the bagels do touch they will not cook up properly.
Ingredients for bagels
- Self Rising Flour
- Greek Yogurt
- Egg Wash
- Seasonings
Greek Yogurt
You have to use greek yogurt. The thickness of the Greek yogurt is what helps the dough form properly. Fage and Stonyfield Greek are both great options. You might find an off-brand of Greek that could work well. You can make your own Yogurt without the yogurt button right in your instant pot.
Texture of Dough
Make sure to play with the dough. If it is too wet add more flour, do stiff, add more yogurt. The dough is something that needs to be worked with to ensure you get the right consistency.
Flour
The main ingredient of dough is Self Rising bread flour. This will help your bagels rise as they bake. If you use a different type, you will find your bagels will end up flat. You can make your own self-rising flour with all-purpose flour and baking powder.
Can I Double The 2 Ingredient Bagel Recipe
You can double or even triple the bagel recipe. It is so easy to do, and you will just have to batch cook your bagels of course. You can also decrease the amount by half if you only want to make a few bagels!
How To Freeze
Once you are done cooking your bagels, allow your bagels to cool down on a cooling rack. Once cooled place in an airtight container or freezer bag and toss in the freezer for up to 3 months. When you want to reheat, just allow them to thaw on the counter, or nuke them in the microwave.

How Long Will they Last In Fridge
You can wrap up your bagels and place in the fridge for up to 3 days. After that, you will find they begin to dry out and go bad, at which time you need to toss them out.
Can You Toast A Bagel In Air Fryer
You can toast your bagel in the air fryer. Turn fryer to 370 degrees and slice and bake for 3 minutes. Remove bagel, add a dollop of butter, and then place back in air fryer for another 2-3 minutes. Then pull and enjoy!

These look fabulous and I can’t wait to make them. How many weight watcher points per bagel?
It would be 3 pts per ONE bagel based off the ingredients
Hello I’m Sherry and on my attempt to make these bagels I couldn’t find self rising bread flour anywhere in my area of Long Island, New York. If you would be so kind as to tell me where I can find that flour I would truly appreciate it. Thanks for response in advance. BTW I made the bagels with just self rising flour and they come out pretty good and tasted great. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe.
Sherry,
From what I read in the recipe, you are supposed to use self rising flour. I don’t think self rising bread flour exists, as most bread recipes use yeast. The addition of baking powder in the flour wouldn’t be needed. So, I believe you used the correct flour.
Yes you use the self rising flour
@Sarah, I had the same problem and I made my own self rising flour by adding 1.5 tsp baking powder and 1/4 tsp salt to 1 cup flour! They turned out amazing !
@Sarah, you need to look in walmart. It is right next to the regular flour.
@Sherry Crawford,
@Sarah all purpose flour with 2 tsp of baking powder
@Sherry Crawford, you can make self rising flour with flour and baking powder and salt. Google it
@Sarah, easier to make your own
My daughter has an egg allergy, any good alternative to the egg wash?
You can use milk or oil to get a similar finished result, but make sure you include that when figuring your points. You can also use plain water if you just need toppings like sesame seeds to adhere to the top.
@Chelsea, Use Milk, Cream or butter.
You don’t say how many points these bagels are
Looks amazing !! Thanks
I am still looking for that too???
3 pts
2 points
@Mary, 3.
@Kathy,
Is it 3 pouts for green?
Thx(:
Pretty sure serving size is wrong, lol. Nutritional value is for 1 bagel, not 4.
On blue program one bagel is 3 points. This recipe makes four bagels.
Hi. I’m making these today and was wondering which setting you used on the Ninja Foodi? Do you use the Aircrisp or the bake/roast?
Thanks!
@Melissa, I would use Aircrisp
@Melissa, I have a breville smart combo and I followed the recipe and used AIRFRY (400 degrees)15 minutes was perfect.
Could I bake these in a regular oven instead of an air fryer?
Yes google it I made then in oven before I just don’t remember how long to cook them
Can low fat Greek yogurt be used?
I can’t have dairy, what can you recommend to replace the Greek yogurt?
@Sharon, you can use lactose free Greek yogurt for o pts
@Angelique, I used Silk dairy free almond milk yogurt in mine yesterday. Turned out great.
Would cassava/ coconut flour mix work as flour sub?
Mine came out small and doughy. What did I do wrong?
Mine also did I am also wondering what could have happened. The flavor is very good though. Glad I tried it and I hope she will update with a suggestion on what we can do differently. I baked mine in a conventional oven.
I followed the instructions on this site and the WW site for this recipe. Both ways the dough was always very under cooked and practically raw. I think I will just buy my bagels! Glad I tried though.
You can also bake in the oven for about 20 minutes. Try air frying only 2 at a time. The hot air needs to circulate in order to cook. Your basket may have been too crowded.
@Maureen, I make 6 mini bagels from this recipe and bake them on top rack for 15 minutes at 350 and then broil on low for about 5 minutes or u til tops are golden. They’re never doughy
I’d like to try this recipe, however, you reference self-rising bread flour. No such thing. There is bread flour. There is self-rising flour, which is AP flour with baking powder. So. Which did you use?
Use self rising flour
@Karen Johnston, self rising flour does exist but if you don’t have it just add baking powder to your flour.
@Wayne Lowery,
Self rising flour definitely exists. You can find it in the flour section at any grocery store including Walmart.
I tried it using Light&Fit strawberry flavored Greek yogurt. Absolutely wonderful, 1 extra point per bagel. I will definitely make these again!
So this was my first ever recipe in the air fryer… and I didn’t follow directions very well (I added the egg in the dough mixture, lol), but 15 minutes later an WOWZA!!! Real, hot, homemade bagels/bread. Now, I have to find a GF recipe for my husband and we’ll be golden. Thanks so much! I’m liking this thing!
Kathi, I am going to try this GF using a 1-1 GF flour such as king Arthur or Pillsbury and add the salt and baking powder as if you were making homemade self rising flour. I will also add the egg like you did here as GF stuff as you know is so dry. I’ll be doing this within the next couple days as I’m out of GF flour currently.. Ill be back in touch after ..
@Naomi,
How did they turn out?
Also, what were the points for your version?
Thx!
Have you (or anyone else) tried making air-fryer bagels with gluten-free flour? I know that can make things trickier but thought it worth asking?
@Jessica, I made these with Better Batter GF flour. Added 1.5 tsp baking powder and 1/2 tsp salt. I air-fried at 400* for 12 minutes. The inside was a little doughy, but we managed to eat them 🙂 so I’m going to try them again baking at 350* and see if that helps. Yummy!
I tried these today. They came out GREAT!! I LOVE,LOVE,LOVE!!
Mine didn’t really puff up like the ones I’m seeing in the pictures. Any ideas? Thanks!
@Amy, you can substitute ap flour (all purpose and add 1 1/2 tsp. baking and 1/2 tsp. table salt.
I only could find regular flour will that work
What if I use nonfat greek yogurt instead of low fat? Does anyone think that will make a difference?
@Cheryl, Hi Cheryl. I made these bagels this morning using Fage 0% Milk fat Greek yogurt. Followed the remaining directions to a tee only to add Trader Joe’s Everything Bagel seasoning after I egg washed the bagel. Air fryed them in my Ninja for about 11 minutes, until golden brown on top. I just have one word to describe these “gems”…FANTASTIC!!!!!
@Cheryl, I would like to know that too.
Can you bake this in the oven
Yes
Why do my bagels never rise that high? 😢 Mine seem to come out like hockey pucks. I’d upload a picture, if I knew I could
How do I make this keto friendly? Can I use almond or coconut flower?
They came out perfect! I did have to cook them for two additional minutes. When I took them out after 10 minutes, they were a little gooey in the middle instead of having a bread-like texture. After the two extra minutes …. perfection!!
I made these bagels this morning using Fage 0% Milk fat Greek yogurt. Followed the remaining directions to a tee only to add Trader Joe’s Everything Bagel seasoning after I egg washed the bagel. I also used Gold Medal Self-Rising Flour that I purchased at Walmart. Air fryed all 4 bagels in my Ninja for about 11 minutes, until golden brown on top. I just have one word to describe these “gems”…FANTASTIC!!!!!
BTW, after calculating the points using my WW app, the points came out to 4 points per bagel. Well worth EVERY point!!!! =0)
What setting on air fryer? Just says temp. Air fry or bake setting?
Just made these for the first time, very good! I used everything bagel seasoning on them! What is the shelf life for theses, also should they be stored in the fridge? Thanks!
Hi. Just made these and all I can say is Wow!!! I only have 1 question: is 1 serving actually all 4 bagles?
I’ve made these bagels several times and they are delicious , how many points are they for weight watchers?
Thanks! Very tasty. Should I put on air fry or bake ? Have a ninja foodi pro.
Just made these bagels and they are EXCELLENT! 4 fit perfectly into my Ninja. A definite keeper and so easy to make. Wish I had a break out of the nutritional value.
How many WW points is this?
Tried this recipe for the first time today and had amazing results…they were a huge hit!! Only thing different that I did was spray the basket bottom with a cooking spray….delicious!!
Can flour be substituted??
Just made these bagels they are delicious! Will ma,e again and add cheese to the dough.
Made these today exactly as written and they were excellent. They are slightly doughy but that is ok!
Can you use dannon light and fit Greek flavored yogart?
yes you can
I made these this morning and they were delicious!! I cooked mine for 17 minutes at 350 they were moist and crispy. Thank you.
Finally made these. So easy! They were light and fluffy and less dense(?) than a regular bagel. Making again today
I have found the best yogurt to use it makes the texture just like biscuits.
It’s Two Good! Best I have tried and I have tried many.
I love cinnamon raisin bagels. Do you think I could make this with half whole wheat flour (adding 3/4 tsp baking powder and 1/8 tsp salt) and half SR flour, adding cinnamon and raisins? I know the points would change but I don’t mind that.
These are really delicious! I used all purpose GF flour. I added 1/2 tsp of Xantham gum, about 1-1 1/2 tsp baking powder, and a dash of salt. They rose up while baking in the air fryer. I baked it for about 13 mins. It was easy to knead and cut into 4 pieces. Got 4 delicious GF bagels out of it!
P.S. I’ve seen many questions about self rising flour. In Iowa, we can get that anywhere. Walmart and any other grocery store. I have it, but I couldn’t use it because it’s not GF. Hence the Xantham gum, and baking powder.
Thank you for this delicious recipe! I think I’ll use it to make flat breads too!
I did do flat bread with it also it’s very good
Can I use goats milk yogurt?
Any recommendations on how to make this lower in carbs or gluten free? How about using coconut flour?
I have not tried
