  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) and grease a baking pan.

  2. 2

    Combine 1 cup flour, baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir in Greek yogurt and knead until all the flour is incorporated; if the dough is sticky, add more flour.

  3. 3

    Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then press each ball into a flat circle so they resemble mini pizzas.

  4. 4

    Place cream cheese in the center of each circle. Fold the edges up and pinch to seal, forming a round ball of dough with cream cheese inside. Ensure the seams are sealed so the cream cheese does not leak during baking. Arrange seam side down on the prepared baking pan.

  5. 5

    Whisk the egg, half-and-half, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Brush the egg wash over the tops of the dough balls and sprinkle with bagel seasoning.

  6. 6

    Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush with melted butter before serving.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products

easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.

The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.

Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.

For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
