The first time we made these we were super skeptical however these higher protein tofu bagels are soft, chewy, and so tasty! Instead of traditional flour-heavy dough, these bagels use tofu as a key ingredient, making them a fantastic source of protein and nutrients while still being deliciously satisfying. Use gluten free flour to make them gluten free

Mix the tofu with the dry ingredients
In a bowl mash the tofu, and sieve in the flour, salt, and garlic powder (if using).
Knead till it comes together
Knead briefly for a few minutes until a soft dough forms. If it’s too sticky, add a little more flour.
Shape the bagels
Lightly dust your hands with flour and divide the dough into 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into thin sausage shape approx 2cm or ¾ inch and link them together until they are bagel shaped or look like doughnuts.
Boil the bagels
Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and reduce to a simmer. Drop in the bagels one at a time and cook each one for approx 30 seconds, they should start to float. Using slotted spoon transfer the bagels to the lined baking tray

Let them cool on a wire rack before slicing. Enjoy with your favorite spreads like hummus, smashed avocado, or vegan cream cheese!
