Description

Soft, chewy Panera Copycat Cinnamon Crunch Bagels with a crackly cinnamon sugar topping — made with just 5 ingredients in the oven or air fryer. Tastes just like the bakery, without the bakery price tag!

Ingredients 

  • 1⅓ cups self-rising flour
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, full-fat preferred
  • ½ cup brown sugar, packed
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, stir together self-rising flour and Greek yogurt until a shaggy dough forms.
  • Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for about 1 minute. Divide into 4 equal pieces.
  • Roll each piece into a 5- to 7-inch rope and pinch ends together to form a bagel.
  • In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon. Press the top of each bagel into the cinnamon sugar mixture, coating generously.
  • Place bagels on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes before serving.
