1/2cuppumpkin puree
1teaspoonpumpkin pie spice, or a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves
1/2teaspoonsalt

Instructions
Combine the pumpkin Greek yogurt, self-rising flour, canned pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and salt in a mixing bowl. Mix until a dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it for a few minutes until it's smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, you can add a bit more flour.
Divide the dough into equal portions to form bagels. Depending on the size you prefer, you should get approximately 4-6 bagels.
Shape each portion into a ball and poke a hole in the center to create the classic bagel shape. Stretch the hole a bit to prevent it from closing during baking.
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
Optional: Brush the top of each bagel with a little water and sprinkle with your choice of toppings like sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or everything bagel seasoning.
Place the bagels in the preheated air fryer basket, leaving space between them to allow for expansion. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Air fry the bagels at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown and have a firm texture.
Remove the pumpkin bagels from the air fryer and let them cool on a wire rack.
Once cooled, slice, toast, and enjoy your homemade Pumpkin Bagels with your favorite toppings, such as cream cheese or butter.
