LOW CARB BAGELS made with Everything Bagel seasoning in a mini waffle iron – just 4 ingredients and ready in less than 10 minutes! Smear with a thick layer of cream cheese for a delicious and quick breakfast!
There used to be this bagel shop in my town that sold bagel sticks – basically a bagel breadstick.
Y’all, those were the best bagels of my life.
Just me + a bagel stick + a bucket of cream cheese = pure heaven.
These days I avoid the bagels, but when the chaffle train came screeching into the low carb train station (I’ve had too much coffee today and my writing shows it), I instantly thought of an Everything Bagel Chaffle.
(Not sure what a chaffle is? Read all about chaffles!)
Y’all. Y’ALL.
This is life.

How to make keto bagel chaffles:
For the chaffle batter, you’ll need 1 egg, some mozzarella cheese, a little coconut flour, and some Everything Bagel seasoning. <— You can certainly use store-bought seasoning, but my recipe is quick, easy, and perfect!
Whisk together your egg, coconut flour, and seasoning and then stir in your mozzarella.
I really prefer finely shredded cheese in my chaffles, but use what you’ve got.
Don’t worry – you can order from Amazon for around $10 and I almost guarantee you won’t regret the purchase!
They’ve been on backorder for a bit due to the overwhelming love of the chaffle, but go ahead and order! I’m hearing from readers that they’re shipping out much sooner than the backorder date!
The Dash heats quickly, cooks quickly, takes up barely any space, and it comes in a variety of cute colors. I have the aqua.

If you plan to make chaffles for a family, this should work great! I haven’t tried it myself, but plan to order because my kids are obsessed with chaffles too.

Giving up bagels is hard if you love your Keto lifestyle. Thomas' Keto Bagel Thins Bagels contain just 2 grams of net carbs per serving and are 80 calories, making it a great option if you are looking to cut back on carbs.
Keto friendly, low carb, and gluten-free – It goes without saying that my keto bagels are… well, keto. 😉 These have only 5g net carbs (and 8 grams total carbs) each. But they are also gluten-free, unlike the ones you might see popping up in stores!
Some sources of carbohydrates like fiber and sugar alcohols are not absorbed into your bloodstream, therefore they are not part of your daily allowance of net carbs. On the keto diet, you are allowed to have no more than 50 grams of net carbs per day – and the fewer, the better!
As far as how many carbohydrates to eat, Pratt says 100 to 150 grams of carbohydrates is safe for most people who are trying to lose weight. It may be better for some people to eat carbs consistently throughout the day. “You can also break it up evenly with 40 to 50 grams of carbs per meal,” she says.
Chewy keto bagels do exist and they are delicious! This easy nut-free recipe takes only 5 ingredients and 40 minutes of your time. And with only 2.9g net carbs, they are perfect for a healthy keto breakfast. I couldn't be more thrilled with these keto bagels and I think you will be too.
For a healthier choice, look for whole wheat, whole grain, or rye bagels. While bagels with cream cheese are delicious, traditional cream cheese is not necessarily healthy. This popular bagel topping is generally low in protein and high in fat and calories.
You can eat high fat foods like cheese on the Keto diet. Cheddar, Gouda, goat cheese, and blue cheese are the best to consider. Cheese to avoid on Keto are cottage cheese and low fat and processed varieties.
Philadelphia is one of the best brands of keto-friendly cream cheese. A 2-tablespoon serving of Philadelphia cream cheese contains 102 calories, 10 grams of fat, 1.8 grams of protein, and only 1.6 grams of carbohydrates. It's recommended to opt for plain or full-fat Philadelphia cream cheese for the keto diet.
You can, maybe a slice or two here and there, but you ideally don't want to be eating too much of it. This is because a keto diet involves eating minimal carbs; less than 50g a day. However, a slice of bread contains around 20g of carbs, which is quite a chunk of your daily carbohydrate allocation.
Peanut butter can definitely be part of a keto diet, but it's best to stick to plain options that are free of extra flavors and sweeteners. Almond butter is a good choice, too, and it's slightly lower in carbs. Additionally, you should be mindful of your portion size if you're trying to lose weight.
Almond flour is a 100% keto-approved baking flour. It is also the most widely used keto flour on shelves. However, what it lacks in carbs, it makes up for in calories. Though almond flour is significantly higher in calories than many other flours, it also contains considerable amounts of protein and fiber.
If you look at coconut flour it contains 68.7 grams of carbohydrate per 100 grams. Of that 38.5 grams is dietary fiber, sugar accounts for another 8.7 grams leaving about 17.6 grams of starchy carbs. Comparing this to regular conventional all purpose flour 100 grams contains 76.3 grams of total carbs.
The recommended daily carb intake for ketogenic diets varies depending on individual goals, activity levels, and health status. Generally, it is recommended to keep daily carbs intake under 50 grams. However, some people may need to restrict their daily carb intake to 20-30 grams for optimal ketosis.
To achieve optimal ketone levels, you must restrict your carb intake. Most people on the keto diet restrict their carb intake to less than 50 grams of total carbs — or 25 grams of net carbs — per day ( 1 ). Net carbs refer to the total number of carbs minus the amount of fiber.
This keto bread contains 1g net carbs per slice, providing a high flavor and fiber bread for those following a keto diet. Made to be delicious to the last bite, this sandwich bread also delivers on some very specific dietary preferences with 35 calories per bread slice.
