you can just thank me now... Of course, I am sure most Trim Healthy Mama group members have seen the recent craze: Wholesome Yum's Low Carb Bagels with Almond Flour... Anything that goes wild on THM's facebook groups can be considered "viral" for all intents and purposes! On its own merit, it is a terrific recipe and the ingredients fall into the "S" category for Trim Healthy Mama, so the craze is pretty much a no-brainer! Now, as is often the case since THM does not have a set upper limit for fatty foods, we can sometimes get a little too crazy, forgetting that at some point foods which are calorie-dense can stall our weight-loss progress. Since I love to eat, I decided it would be best if I could lighten this up a bit - so I substituted Trim Healthy Mama Baking Blend and Trim Healthy Mama Oat Fiber in place of some of the almond flour and made a few other adjustments as well. *This is where I hope no one notices that I promptly slather butter on my lightened up version. These are SO good! I was going to show some self restraint... but... INGREDIENTS (yield 8 bagels) 1 C almond flour 3/4 C Trim Healthy Mama Baking Blend (or RunAmok Mama's Quick Mix) 1/4 C Trim Healthy Mama Oat Fiber 1 1/3 TBS Aluminum-free Baking Powder 3 1/4 C shredded Mozzarella Cheese 3 oz Cream Cheese, cubed (or 1/3 less fat cream cheese) 2 large Eggs, beaten *optional poppy and/or sesame seeds for topping *optional egg white + water (or melted butter) to brush on top of bagels before adding seeds/baking DIRECTIONS

When there isn't a print option available, I quite often copy a recipe and then paste into a word document and print from there. Hope that helps.

So sorry, Libby - I do plan to set these up with a printable version at some point, but time is short here at RunAmok Farm -- so waiting for downtime over winter for site updates. I do see a print recommendation which works below, so hopefully that will help you for the time being.

Thank you for this! I have been following THM, but have yet to lose weight -- I think I must be over-doing calories. I am mostly sedentary and have the metabolism of a snail. I am going to focus on eating more 'light S' meals, with fuel pull snacks. (Instead of every S meal slathered in cheese, with heavy S desserts).

Thanks so much! I made some last Saturday and lightened them up as well....I used 1 cup of the almond flour and 3/4 cup of the THM baking blend....they turned out awesome and tasted very buttery. My hubby ate alot of them...They are great as sandwich bread and was thinking, instead of bagels...could just leave them straight and maked bread sticks to dip into EVOO with roasted garlic....drooling here...LOL!

Yay! They really are a tasty alternative to carby-breads! Did you see my RunAmok Mama's Better Than Bread Sticks? (Great minds! The roasted garlic though... drooooool.)

I've been wanting to try these, but had been going to try a lighter version. Thank you for doing this!

Yay! If you check out my RunAmok Mama's Better Than Bread Sticks, you will find that version even lighter than this one here. Both are good, and just depends upon your mood and the rest of dinner... but YUM!

I think I'm going try this as a pizza crust!

Yes! It browns up nicely and is easy to pick up! My bread stick recipe, rolled out, is a good choice as well!

I haven't tried it, but betting it would work fine. :) You could add a bit more baking blend + flax as well - that would keep it a bit lighter than the flax sub on its own.

Is the mozzarella cheese full fat or reduced fat?

Can I get the nutrition info? I"m doing Keto & don't know if I can eat this. I would need to know net carbs, fat & protein. Comments are closed.
