Low-Carb Cinnamon Sugar Bagels?! YES PLEASE.
If you’ve been following a low-carb diet for any period of time (even as short as 30 seconds), you’ve probably dreamt about bread. Soft, warm, DELICIOUS bread. I love you and I’ve missed you.
Keto Bagels
Did you know that most store-bought bagels have OVER 50g carbs in just one bagel?! If you follow a low-carb diet, bagels are just not an option.
But, with this recipe for Low-Carb Cinnamon Sugar Bagels in your wheelhouse, you will no longer be denied your bagel fix!
Low-Carb Bagels Sweetened with MONK FRUIT SWEETENER
These bagels are sweetened and dusted with my favorite calorie-free, net-carb-free, and all-natural sweetener, Lakanto Monk Fruit Sweetener, which is a product that I consider to be a pantry-necessity! I love monk fruit sweetener because it tastes exactly like traditional sugar, yet it doesn’t spike your blood sugar nor will it kick you out of ketosis.

At only 5.6g net carbs per serving, these Low-Carb Cinnamon Sugar Bagels are about to be your new favorite breakfast! This recipe is low-carb, gluten-free, grain-free, vegetarian, and refined-sugar-free!
Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp cream of tartar
- 3 tbsp monk fruit sweetener, divided (use code “REALBALANCED” for 20% off Lakanto products)
- 1 tbsp cinnamon, divided
- 2 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella
- 2 oz cream cheese
- 3 large eggs
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, 1 tbsp monk fruit sweetener, and 1 tsp cinnamon.
- To a microwave-safe bowl, add mozzarella and cream cheese and microwave for 90 seconds. Remove bowl from microwave and stir ingredients together. Return to microwave and microwave for another 60 seconds. Stir together until mozzarella and cream cheese are completely combined.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together 2 eggs. Add whisked eggs to large mixing bowl of flour. Transfer cheese mixture to large mixing bowl of flour and eggs. Using your hands, knead together the dough until well-combined (flour and cheese must be combined completely before moving ahead to remaining steps).
- Divide dough into 6 equal portions (I used a food scale to make sure mine were precisely divided). Using your hands, gently roll each of the 6 portions into a log shape, attaching the two ends to make the log into a circle. Place on prepared baking sheet.
- In a bowl, whisk remaining egg. Using a pastry brush, brush egg wash over bagels. Combine remaining 2 tbsp of monk fruit sweetener and remaining 2 tsp cinnamon and sprinkle on top of egg wash on bagels (I used a mesh strainer to ensure cinnamon sugar was evenly coated on bagels).
- Bake bagels for 12-14 minutes, watching the bagels carefully the last few minutes to ensure cinnamon doesn’t burn. Remove bagels from oven and allow to cool for at least 15 minutes (NOTE: it is important to allow them to cool before eating as the inner part of the bagel will finish cooking during this time).

I’m new to keto cooking and have a question–are sweeteners interchangeable according to preference, or will the recipe only work correctly with monkfruit sweetener? Looking forward to trying this one, but I only have granulated stevia on hand and don’t want to waste my time if the monkfruit is a must-use.
Hi, Maria!! Great question! So, some low-carb sweeteners are similar, but, depending on the brand, stevia and monk fruit are quite different in terms of taste (specifically aftertaste) and texture. While I personally think monk fruit sweetener is the best tasting low-carb sugar alternative, Swerve or erythritol should work as a replacement. Hope that helps!
