# What You Need:
→ Bagels
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
→ 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
# Directions:
01 - In a large bowl, whisk together bread flour, protein powder, sugar, yeast, and salt until evenly combined.
02 - Create a well in the center of dry ingredients and pour warm water and oil into it. Mix with a spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
03 - Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth, elastic, and no longer sticky.
04 - Gently fold blueberries into kneaded dough, distributing them evenly throughout without breaking the berries.
05 - Place dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm location for 45 minutes until volume doubles.
06 - Preheat oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
07 - Punch down risen dough and divide into 6 equal portions. Shape each into a ball, poke a hole in the center with your finger, then stretch into a bagel ring.
08 - Bring 6 cups water, honey, and baking soda to a rolling boil in a wide pot.
09 - Using a slotted spoon, carefully lower each bagel into boiling water. Boil for 45 seconds per side, then transfer to prepared baking sheet.
10 - Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy on the exterior. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
11 - While bagels cool, combine Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
12 - Once bagels are completely cooled, spread or pipe Greek yogurt frosting generously over each bagel and serve immediately.
