- Use fresh or thawed frozen blueberries. Pat frozen ones dry to avoid extra moisture.
- Mix gently after adding berries to avoid crushing them.
- If the dough is too sticky, add a little flour, one tablespoon at a time.
- Shape bagels tightly so they hold their ring shape while baking.
- Bake until they are light golden for a soft inside and slight crust.

You can add a teaspoon of lemon zest for a bright flavor. Replace blueberries with chopped strawberries or raspberries. For a sweeter bagel, fold in a tablespoon of honey before baking.
FAQs
Q: Can I use flavored Greek yogurt?
A: Yes, but flavored yogurt may add extra sweetness. Plain yogurt gives a more neutral taste.
Q: Can I make these bagels gluten-free?
A: You can try a gluten-free flour mix, but texture may change. Add a binder like xanthan gum if your mix lacks it.
Q: Do I need to boil the bagels before baking?
A: No. This recipe skips boiling for a faster and simpler method. The bagels will be softer and more like quick breads.
Q: Can I use chia seeds instead of ground flaxseed?
A: Yes. Use the same amount of ground chia or whole chia if you prefer added texture.
Q: How do I keep the blueberries from bleeding?
A: Fold the berries in gently and use fresh berries. If using frozen, dry them well first.
