Description

Soft, chewy, and bursting with chocolatey goodness, these Chocolate Chip Sourdough Bagels are a quick, no-rise delight โ€” perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dessert. No yeast, no waiting, just pure comfort with a sustainable twist.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1ยผ cups self-rising flour (or DIY: all-purpose + 1ยฝ tsp baking powder + ยผ tsp baking soda + ยผ tsp salt)
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar (optional)
  • ยฝ cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
  • ยฝ cup sourdough discard (unfed)
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (semisweet, dark, or white)
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)
  • 1 tbsp milk (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375ยฐF (190ยฐC). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mix flour, cocoa powder, sugar, Greek yogurt, and sourdough discard to form a sticky dough.
  3. Transfer dough to a floured surface. Knead lightly, adding more flour if too sticky.
  4. Flatten dough, add half the chocolate chips, and fold. Knead to distribute evenly.
  5. Divide into 8 pieces. Roll into ropes, form rings, and pinch ends together.
  6. Place on baking sheet. Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with extra chocolate chips.
  7. Bake for 20โ€“22 minutes or until slightly puffed and firm.
  8. Cool on wire rack for 5โ€“10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use high-quality cocoa and chips for the richest flavor. No need to rest the dough โ€” bake immediately after shaping for best texture.
