# What You Need:
→ Bagel Dough
01 - 2 cups bread flour
02 - 1 cup unflavored whey protein powder
03 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
04 - 2¼ teaspoons instant dry yeast
05 - ½ teaspoon salt
06 - ¾ cup warm water (110°F)
07 - 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
08 - 1 tablespoon neutral oil
→ Boiling Water Bath
09 - 6 cups water
10 - 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
11 - 1 tablespoon baking soda
→ Greek Yogurt Frosting
12 - ¾ cup plain Greek yogurt (2% or full-fat)
13 - 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
14 - ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
# How-To Steps:
01 - In a large mixing bowl, combine bread flour, protein powder, granulated sugar, instant dry yeast, and salt. Mix thoroughly until well incorporated.
02 - Create a well in the center of the dry mixture. Pour warm water and neutral oil into the well. Mix with a spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
03 - Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 8 to 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
04 - Gently knead blueberries into the dough until evenly distributed throughout.
05 - Place dough in a lightly greased bowl and cover. Let rise in a warm location for 45 minutes or until volume doubles.
06 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
07 - Punch down risen dough and divide into 6 equal portions. Shape each piece into a ball, then poke a hole in the center with your finger and stretch into a bagel shape with a 2-inch opening.
08 - Bring water, honey or maple syrup, and baking soda to a rolling boil in a wide pot.
09 - Working in batches if necessary, boil each bagel for 45 seconds on each side using a slotted spoon. Transfer to prepared baking sheet.
10 - Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
11 - In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
12 - Once bagels are completely cooled, spread or pipe Greek yogurt frosting on top of each bagel before serving.
