Chewy Breadmachine Bagels
1 1/2 teaspoons of yeast
2 cups of all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon of sugar
1 teaspoon of salt
3/4 cup of very warm water
Place ingredients in your bread machine. Select dough or manual cycle. When cycle is finished, remove the dough from the machine and roll into 6 snakes about a 10 inches long. Press the ends tightly together to form a doughnut shape. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Place bagels in the boiling water for 2 minutes. (The longer they boil the chewier they are.) Remove from the water and place on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes until golden in color.
Try: half all-purpose and half whole wheat flour. Add a teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/4 cup of raisins and an extra tablespoon of vegan sugar for Cinnamon Raisin Bagels
SO HOW'D IT GO?
excellent
the few that rised before they were boiled were better than the ones that didn't. i think i'm going to let them rise for maybe half an hour next time :)
these were really really good! i used 1 cup of white flour and 1 cup of whole wheat...i will definitely make them again ;D
Being the Health Snob that I am, I have unnaturally vehement aversion to white flour. :P Could I do this with all whole-wheat if I added some gluten? How much, do you think? I was thinking I may try it with three tablespoons or so. Wish me luck! Oh, and another thing; do you let the bagels rise before boiling them? It seems that you would, as there is no rising times mentioned anywhere else. I suppose I need to get more familiar with my bread machine. :P
This is an amazing recipe ^_^ (I'm eating the bagels as I type) I made garlic dill bagels with this recipe but adding 1 tsp of dried dill and 1 tsp of garlic powder. Will be experimenting more with this recipe. But definitely will not go back to buying bagels.
Another variation: double the recipe, add 1/2 cup dried cranberries and the grated rind from one orange. In a double recipe, you can use 3 1/2 cups King Arthur white whole wheat and 1/2 cup white flour and really up the nutrition value, but it still tastes great.
This was a pretty nice recipe. I think I left it in the water a little too long, but other than that I think I would only need to prefect the size and joining the ends. Howe'ver, I found that this recipe is also at this link: http://www.nancyskitchen.com/recipe_data.asp?Name=BREADMAKER+BAGELS
