Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Blend the cottage cheese in a food processor until smooth, about 30 seconds.
Transfer the smooth cottage cheese to a mixing bowl and gradually fold in the flour until a sticky dough forms.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and roll each into a ball, poking a hole in the center of each to shape into bagels.
Bring a pot of water to a gentle boil, adding honey if using, and boil each bagel for 30 seconds per side.
Place the boiled bagels on the prepared baking sheet, brush with a beaten egg, and sprinkle with everything seasoning if desired.
Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool for about 5 minutes before serving.

Use full-fat cottage cheese for the best texture and flavor. Experiment with toppings like sesame seeds or cheese.
