Recipe from Bored Of Lunch (2023)
Being able to bake your own bread is such a wonderful skill to have. And there really is nothing like the smell of freshly baked bread.
If you’re making this in cookery club you can always make up to the final rising stage and then send the unbaked rolls home with the children to bake at home. Just make sure
you send home temperature and timings with them.

Ingredients (makes 4 bagels):
- 125g self-raising flour
- 210g Greek yoghurt
- 2 eggs
Optional flavours:
- Mixed herbs
- Sesame
- Cheese
Method
- In a bowl, mix the flour, yoghurt and 1 egg. If it’s too runny/sticky, add some extra flour until it resembles a dough you can roll.
- Tip out onto a floured surface and knead for around minute.
- Divide into 4 portions, roll each one into a sausage and shape into bagel rings.
- Beat the other egg in a bowl and brush it over the bagels, then scatter with a flavour (optional).
- Air-fry at 190°C for 10 minutes until they have doubled in size and are golden brown
So thinking about bagels ...
Bread is a good source of complex carbohydrates which gives us energy. It is also a good source of fibre and B vitamins. In general, wholemeal and whole-grain flours/bread tend to be more nutritious than white, and they also contain more fibre.

Notes
A traffic light system is used on nutrition labels to make it easier to see which foods and drinks are lower in calories, fat, sugar and salt. Try and choose more ‘greens’ and ‘ambers’ and fewer ‘reds’, and stick to smaller portions of ‘reds’.
Just because a recipe or a food has a red traffic light doesn’t mean you shouldn’t eat it. Understanding why a food or recipe might have a red light can be helpful. For example oily fish is high in total fat and so any recipe containing oily fish is likely to be ‘red’ for fat. But it is recommended that we eat oily fish at least once a week because the type of fat it contains is beneficial for our health.
% Reference Intakes are also shown. Reference Intakes are guidelines about the approximate amount of particular nutrients and energy required for a healthy diet (based on an average-sized woman doing an average amount of physical activity). Most children will require less than these Reference Intakes. The contribution of one serving of a food or drink to the Reference Intake for each nutrient is expressed as a percentage.
