Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

When combined and melted, add the eggs.

Add all dry ingredients, pumpkin, and mix with hands until fully combined.

Fold in the remaining tablespoon of pecans.

You can make 6 bagels depending on size. Make 6 equal size balls of dough and stick a finger through the center, creating a bagel-like shape. They will expand slightly on the pan, but not much.

Brush each bagel with a little olive oil and top with the remaining 1 tablespoon of crushed pecans.

Cook for 10-15 minutes. Keep an eye on them starting at 10 minutes, you want them to brown but also to cook through.

Let cool for 10-15 minutes and enjoy!
