Instructions

Preheat the oven. Turn your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking.
Make the dough. In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt together. Add the Greek yogurt and stir with a large spoon until a sticky dough forms and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
Form the dough balls. Lightly flour a work surface and divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Use your hands to tightly roll and form each piece into a ball to ensure the dough holds together when filled.
Stuff the bagel bites. Flatten each ball to about ¼ inch thickness with your hand. Place a cube of cream cheese in the center. Fold the dough around the cream cheese, sealing all sides carefully by wetting your fingers with hot water and pressing the creases together. Roll the stuffed ball again to secure the seal and prevent the filling from leaking.
Bake. Arrange the stuffed balls on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with whisked egg white and sprinkle generously with Everything But The Bagel seasoning. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until golden brown on top.
Serve. Remove from the oven, transfer to a tray or cooling rack, allow to cool slightly, and serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
