Equipment

measuring cups and spoons For accurate measuring.
mixing bowls For soaking raisins and mixing dry ingredients.
Air Fryer To air fry the bagels.
wooden spoon To mix the dough.

Ingredients

1/4 cup raisins
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tsps. baking powder
2 tsps. ground cinnamon
3/4 tsp. kosher salt
1 cup 0% (fat-free) Greek yogurt Fage is preferred

Instructions

Place the raisins in a small bowl and add enough hot water to cover them. Let them soak for 5-10 minutes.
1/4 cup raisins
In a medium-sized bowl, combine all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Mix in the Greek yogurt with a wooden spoon.
1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tsps. baking powder, 2 tsps. ground cinnamon, 3/4 tsp. kosher salt
Rinse the raisins and fold them into the yogurt mixture. Use your hands to knead the dough into a ball. (If the dough is dry, add another teaspoon of yogurt. If it's too sticky, add a little more flour.)
1 cup 0% (fat-free) Greek yogurt
On a clean counter or parchment paper (for easy cleanup), dust a little flour. Place the dough on the counter and use a knife or dough cutter/scraper to cut the ball into four equal sections.
Take one of the four sections and with your hands roll it out into a rope about 8 inches long. Pinch the ends together to form a circle.
Place all four bagels in the basket of your air fryer. If you're using a basket-type air fryer, you may need to do two batches. Set the air fryer to 300 degrees and cook for 12-14 minutes.
Let them cool for 10-15 minutes. At this point, you can slice them and spread with cream cheese or toast them for that perfect toasted bagel experience.

Notes

Self-Rising Flour: If you have self-rising flour on hand, you can skip the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt and use just the self-rising flour instead.

Oven: If you don’t have an air fryer, you can bake the bagels in a 375°F oven for 25 minutes.

Variation: Leave out the raisins and cinnamon for a plain-flavored bagel.
