Add all your ingredients into a mixing bowl, including any mix-ins you want (think Raisins, Dried Onion or Garlic, Cheese, etc)
Mix everything together until it starts to clump up
Once it starts to clump, use your hands to knead it until everything is combined and feels like dough
If it appears to be too dry/cracking, add 1-2 tablespoons more of Greek yogurt at a time and if it's too wet/sticky, add 1-2 tablespoons more of flour at a time
Break off a piece of your dough and roll it into a rope
Loop your piece of rope around and press your ends into each other
Repeat until all of your dough is gone, use your best judgement to portion everything evenly
Beat an egg up and lightly brush each protein bagel with it
Sprinkle on your favorite seasonings
Air Fryer
Coat your basket with non-stick cooking spray
Place your high protein bagels inside of it
Air fry them on 300F/148C for 10-12 minutes or until browned enough
