I like to have a yearly blog post of the contests I win. It is nice to have these posts to look back on for memories. You can see the previous posts here  2024 Contest Wins  and  2025 Contest Prizes I haven’t won anything since October last year. If you know me I usually have some decent luck but it’s been an unlucky few months for me. I currently have been out of my apartment for almost two weeks because of my buildings water valve breaking right outside my unit. I have had so many more things happen lately but let’s go back to contest winnings. Yesterday my old boss texted me after a long time and I was remembering how I used to win big prizes after I met him. Well I won a contest right after that so he definitely brought my good luck back. The mall had a contest for its newsletter subscribers for a $25 gift card it was an instant win, I received the gift card today. It was a little bit of a pain to get the card because I had to download an app and then I was able to ad...

Experimenting with 2 ingredient bagel air fryer recipes

I have used my instant vortex plus airfryer oven almost daily since I bought it in October. I am in airfryer oven Facebook group and people keep posting the 2 ingredient bagel recipe. The original recipe is self rising flour and Greek yogurt. The time I decided I wanted to try this was a couple months ago when the pandemic was starting and I couldn’t find any flour. I finally found organic all purpose wheat and pastry flour. I couldn’t find baking powder or self-rising flour and I had Dahi which is an Indian style yogurt not Greek. I also have organic baking soda and I like to experiment.


I set the oven to airfry which is 400 degrees and the timer for 10 minutes. While it was preheating I poured some flour into a bowl and added the yogurt mixed together and shaped some of the dough into a bagel. The big bagel in the picture is just the two ingredients. That one will be a future doughnut recipe. 

Then I added some baking soda to the mixture and shaped into a bagel. The small one on the left is the three ingredients. This tasted most like a bagel. 

Them I added some olive oil to the remaining mixture. The bagel on the right is all 4 ingredients that will be a future pizza bun recipe. 

I really liked the recipe with yogurt, baking soda, and flour. Then I made different variations of this for breakfast 5 days in a row. I can have fresh, tasty bread in 10 minutes everyday it is amazing.


Hmm I wonder what will happen if I add an egg. It wasn’t good. 



What if I add an egg and forget the baking soda for the first one. No still not good. 




Back to the original recipe what if I add cheese. It was delicious deli quality. 



Now I have a deli quality bagel recipe maybe I should try making a bun for my breakfast sandwich with a Gardein veggie patty. Same recipe but added some flavoured olive oil. 



Hmmm that tasted much better than the first time. 

I found the last bag of organic baking powder in a store yesterday. Now I can finally try the original recipe but oh no I don’t have much yogurt left. Let me try adding some olive oil and maple syrup will I get donuts?




This wasn't a doughnut recipe but that was one of the best textured scones I have had. Crunchy on the outside and not dry on the inside. 

This blog is to be continued as I continue to get ingredients I will keep experimenting the results are delicious.
