Who says you need wheat to enjoy a good bagel? Not us!
These gluten-free quinoa bagels prove that simple, clean ingredients can still deliver big on flavor and texture.
Made with just a handful of pantry staples—quinoa, plant-based milk, a touch of salt, and baking powder—this recipe is a wholesome alternative to store-bought gluten-free breads (which often come with a long list of unpronounceables).
We used a mix of white and black quinoa for extra nuttiness and visual appeal, and the result is a light, crispy-on-the-outside, tender-on-the-inside bagel that pairs perfectly with your favorite toppings—from smashed avocado and hummus to a classic smear of dairy-free cream cheese and strawberries.
Even better? There’s no yeast, kneading, or rising time required—just blend, pour, and bake. Whether you’re gluten-free by necessity or simply looking for a nutrient-dense, high-protein breakfast option, these quinoa bagels are a must-try!
