Ingredients

Nonstick cooking spray
1 and 1/2 tablespoons everything bagel topping
1 and 1/4 cups 150 g chickpea flour
2 teaspoons 10 g coconut sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Optional: 1/4 teaspoon salt only if NOT using salted bagel topping
3/4 cup nondairy milk
1 teaspoon cider vinegar

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400F (200C). Spray (or oil) the 6 wells of a full-size donut pan (a pan with wells that are 3.25 inches / 8.2 centimeters in diameter) with nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle a teaspoon (more or less, as desired) of everything bagel seasoning in each well to cover the bottoms.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the chickpea flour, coconut sugar, baking soda, and optional salt until blended.
Add the nondairy milk and vinegar to the bowl, whisking until completely blended. The result will resemble a thick pancake batter.
Working quickly, spoon, pour, or pipe (see post for a how-to) the batter into the prepared wells of the donut pan. Use a spoon to nudge the batter evenly into each well.
Bake the bagels in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes until the tops have risen, firm to the touch, and the color is golden brown. Cool, in the pan, on a cooling rack for 5 minutes.
Run the tip of a spoon or dull knife around the edge of each of the wells on the donut pan to remove the bagels. Serve warm or cool completely. Split and serve with your favorite spreads!

Notes

Storage: Store the cooled bagels in an airtight container at cool room temperature for 1 day, the refrigerator for 3 days,, and the freezer for up to 6 months.

Vinegar Options: An equal amount of any other vinegar, or lemon or lime juice, can be used in place of the cider vinegar.

Coconut Sugar Options: An equal amount of another liquid or granular sweetener (e.g., maple syrup, unrefined sugar, agave nectar, brown sugar) can be used in place of the coconut sugar. It can also be left out of the recipe, if desired.
