Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add Greek yogurt and knead until just combined. If the dough is too sticky, gradually add more flour until it forms a workable ball. (10 minutes)

03

Step

Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten into a small circle, resembling mini pizzas. (7 minutes)

04

Step

Place a spoonful of softened cream cheese in the center of each circle. Gently fold the edges up and pinch to seal, forming a smooth ball with the cream cheese inside. Ensure the edges are well-sealed to prevent leakage during baking. Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. (12 minutes)

05

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, half-and-half, and a pinch of salt to create an egg wash. Brush the tops of each dough ball with the egg wash, then sprinkle generously with everything bagel seasoning. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, approximately 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush with melted butter immediately before serving. (10 minutes)

For an extra golden crust, consider using an egg wash mixed with a touch of maple syrup for subtle sweetness.
Experiment with different fillings! Try adding chives or jalapenos to the cream cheese for a savory twist.
If you don't have everything bagel seasoning, a mix of sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried garlic, and dried onion works well as a substitute.
