Product Review: O’Doughs Gluten-Free Sprouted Whole Grain Flax Bagel Thins

Product: O’Doughs Gluten-Free Sprouted Whole Grain Flax Bagel Thins – $3.99+

A couple weeks ago…I tried O’Doughs Gluten-Free Original Flavor Bagel Thins and was just…wowed by them.  Sure, this bagel-lover enjoys that soft, chewy inside of a bagel as much as the next one…but sometimes, even with gluten-free bagels, it can be a bit much.  So, the fact that gluten-free bagel thins existed made me very, very happy.

And my local grocery store just started to carry these little gluten-free gems in their freezer section.  You do not know happy until you’ve seen me settle in at breakfast with a fantastic bagel with a schmear of some variety of cream cheese (often vegan).  I was raised in New York…the bagel capital of the universe.  No exaggeration.  New Yorkers love a good bagel.

And when I had to go gluten-free…I feared that the bagel would be out of my life forever.  I tried a few varieties out on the market and hated them.  I fell in love with Udi’s…but they can be really filling at times.  Sometimes…you just want something light…but bagel-y.  Yes…that’s a word…now.  And thanks to O’Doughs…this has become a reality.

O’Doughs Gluten-Free Sprouted Whole Grain Flax Bagel Thins are these thin little slabs of bagel, which I actually had to slice in half this time.  The original were pre-sliced.  I don’t know if this was a fluke or what…but…I managed.  Without destroying them in the process too, I might add.  God love a good serrated knife.  WOOHOO!  Anyway, these bagel thins are made up of filtered water, potato starch, tapioca starch, chickpea flour, sprouted flax flour, soya flour, rice flour, evaporated cane juice, cellulose gum, glycerine, sunflower oil, yeast, salt, xanthan gum, cinnamon, algal oil, baking powder, baking soda, sesame seeds, and poppy seeds.

I am wagering a guess that this is really their attempt at an Anything Bagel…which is a definite New York staple.

So…after giving them a toast…and a schmear of a pumpkin spice cream cheese…how did they work out?

Deliciously wonderful.  This variety of O’Doughs Gluten-Free Bagel Thins actually have this fantastic rustic and nutty flavor to them.  The top of the bagels themselves have this amazing sprinkling of seeds (sesame and poppy).  I loved that, as they toasted up with the bagels themselves and really penetrated the dough of the bagel thins…giving them amazing flavor and texture.  And…you won’t overfill your stomach with these thin little bagels of awesomeness.  Not only does O’Doughs provide these amazing Sprouted Whole Grain Flax Bagel Thins free of trans-fat and eggs, they are also non-GMO, kosher, and a healthy and delicious source of fiber.

Now comes the point in the blog where I talk about the nutritional value of the product I ate.  Well, the O’Doughs Gluten-Free Sprouted Whole Grain Flax Bagel Thins are made with all-natural ingredients and no preservatives.  A serving is 1 bagel thin, which gives you 100 calories and 1.5 grams of at.  One of these tasty gluten-free bagel thins provide 300 mg of sodium and 2 grams of sugar.  Not too bad at all.  And you will also be consuming 2 grams of fiber and 2 grams of protein.

As I stated in the blog about the Original Flavor Bagel Thins by O’Doughs…if you spot these…snatch up a bag of them and give them a try.  They are some of the best bagels I have ever tasted.  All that bagel flavor…not too filling…not too fattening.  Just right.  And with so many varieties of toppings to choose from with bagels…get creative and put your own spin on them.  The Gluten-Free Sprouted Whole Grain Flax Bagel Thins are delicious, fantastic, and healthy.  Not to mention…just plain awesome.

So…go and buy some and toast up some gluten-free bagel-y goodness today.  Or tomorrow morning.  But do it!
