Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp active dry yeast
- 3/4 cup warm water (110°F)
- 2 large eggs (1 for dough, 1 for egg wash)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Optional toppings: sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or everything seasoning
Instructions
- Activate Yeast: In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
- Mix Dough: In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture, 1 egg, and olive oil. Stir until a dough forms.
- Knead Dough: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
- Shape Bagels: Punch down the dough and divide it into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and poke a hole in the center to form a bagel shape. Stretch the hole slightly to ensure it doesn’t close during baking.
- Boil Bagels: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Boil each bagel for 1-2 minutes on each side. This step gives bagels their chewy texture.
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Egg Wash: Place boiled bagels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with the beaten egg and sprinkle with desired toppings.
- Bake: Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
- Cool and Enjoy: Let the bagels cool on a wire rack before slicing. Enjoy with cream cheese, avocado, or your favorite toppings!
