This recipe actually comes from a bread machine recipe book. I changed a couple things so I could make it by hand. I do not own a bread machine. I do however use my bosche mixer. My kids devour these so they don't stick around long. They do freeze well when I double or triple the batch. Timing is approximate. Ingredients:
1 2/3 cups water |
1/4 cup sugar |
2 teaspoons salt |
5 cups flour |
1 tablespoon yeast |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients to make a smooth elastic dough. 2. Let rise until double. Punch down. 3. Divide dough into four parts. Divide each part into three pieces. 4. Make a 1-2 inch hole in center of each piece. 5. Pull gently all the way around to form circles. 6. Heat 2 qts water and 2 TBSP sugar to boiling. 7. Place a few bagels at a time in boiling water. 8. Simmer 3 minutes, turning once. 9. Remove with slotted spoon. 10. Place on greased cookie sheet. 11. Bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. 12. Remove from cookie sheet and cool. |
