LOW CARB BAGELS made with Everything Bagel seasoning in a mini waffle iron – just 4 ingredients and ready in less than 10 minutes! Smear with a thick layer of cream cheese for a delicious and quick breakfast!
There used to be this bagel shop in my town that sold bagel sticks – basically a bagel breadstick.
Y’all, those were the best bagels of my life.
Just me + a bagel stick + a bucket of cream cheese = pure heaven.
These days I avoid the bagels, but when the chaffle train came screeching into the low carb train station (I’ve had too much coffee today and my writing shows it), I instantly thought of an Everything Bagel Chaffle.
(Not sure what a chaffle is? Read all about chaffles!)
Y’all. Y’ALL.
This is life.

How to make keto bagel chaffles:
For the chaffle batter, you’ll need 1 egg, some mozzarella cheese, a little coconut flour, and some Everything Bagel seasoning. <— You can certainly use store-bought seasoning, but my recipe is quick, easy, and perfect!
Whisk together your egg, coconut flour, and seasoning and then stir in your mozzarella.
I really prefer finely shredded cheese in my chaffles, but use what you’ve got.
Don’t worry – you can order from Amazon for around $10 and I almost guarantee you won’t regret the purchase!
They’ve been on backorder for a bit due to the overwhelming love of the chaffle, but go ahead and order! I’m hearing from readers that they’re shipping out much sooner than the backorder date!
The Dash heats quickly, cooks quickly, takes up barely any space, and it comes in a variety of cute colors. I have the aqua.
If you want to make more than 1 mini waffle at a time, check out this one:
If you plan to make chaffles for a family, this should work great! I haven’t tried it myself, but plan to order because my kids are obsessed with chaffles too.

The short list of ingredients consists of cream cheese, mozzarella, an egg, almond flour (the finer the grind, the better the texture) and baking soda. These ingredients do not use white flour, so they are wheat free, which means these Easy Low Carb Bagels are gluten free!
As I've mentioned before, you can make anything healthy, low-carb, or keto these days. For example, my Keto Sushi (check it out, it's delightful), bagels are no exception.
Keto friendly, low carb, and gluten-free – It goes without saying that my keto bagels are… well, keto. 😉 These have only 5g net carbs (and 8 grams total carbs) each. But they are also gluten-free, unlike the ones you might see popping up in stores!
For a healthier choice, look for whole wheat, whole grain, or rye bagels. While bagels with cream cheese are delicious, traditional cream cheese is not necessarily healthy. This popular bagel topping is generally low in protein and high in fat and calories.
As far as how many carbohydrates to eat, Pratt says 100 to 150 grams of carbohydrates is safe for most people who are trying to lose weight. It may be better for some people to eat carbs consistently throughout the day. “You can also break it up evenly with 40 to 50 grams of carbs per meal,” she says.
Some sources of carbohydrates like fiber and sugar alcohols are not absorbed into your bloodstream, therefore they are not part of your daily allowance of net carbs. On the keto diet, you are allowed to have no more than 50 grams of net carbs per day – and the fewer, the better!
As a diabetic person, you should try to get half of your daily calories from carbs. For example, if you consume 1,800 calories daily, you should aim for 900 calories in carbs a day. There are four calories per one gram of carbs, so that means you should aim to eat at least 200 grams of carbs.
You can eat high fat foods like cheese on the Keto diet. Cheddar, Gouda, goat cheese, and blue cheese are the best to consider. Cheese to avoid on Keto are cottage cheese and low fat and processed varieties.
If you're looking for cream cheeses that you can add to your keto diet without compromising your daily macros, nutritionists swear by the following brands: Philadelphia Cream Cheese (Plain, Full-Fat) Di Stefano Premium Mascarpone Cheese. Trader Joe's Mascarpone.
Can You Eat Bacon On a Keto Diet? While you may not think of bacon as diet food, most types of bacon fit perfectly into a keto diet plan since they're low in carbs yet high in protein and fat. That means bacon is perfect for snacking on in the afternoon or mixing into your chicken dinner dish for some extra flavoring.
Peanut butter can definitely be part of a keto diet, but it's best to stick to plain options that are free of extra flavors and sweeteners. Almond butter is a good choice, too, and it's slightly lower in carbs. Additionally, you should be mindful of your portion size if you're trying to lose weight.
You will love these delicious homemade everything bagels (or any flavor you want) made with an air fryer using just two ingredients: Greek Yogurt and Defatted Almond Flour. Each bagel is only 143 calories, 5gms net carbs and 20gms of protein! Enjoy these guilt-free low carb bagels any time of the day.
Summary. Instead of being made with high carb wholewheat and grains, keto bread is made using almond or coconut flour, ground flax, psyllium husk or low carb almond meal or ground almonds, all of which come with their own pros and cons.
