Bagels have recently become a firm favourite in our home. Everyone loves them for lunch and easily get through a few packets of them a week. So I decided that I would try my hand at making them myself – just for fun.

For some reason I thought that they would be far more difficult to do than they actually were. The dough was easy – popped everything into my Kenwood and did the whole mixing, proving, mixing again process in it.
Then I divided the dough into 12 equal portions, rolled them out into ‘sausages’ and pinched the ends together.

Next you pop them into rapidly boiling water for a few minutes which causes them to double in size.

Then into the oven for 20 minutes – so easy.

Best of all they tasted delicious and I have enough bagels to see my family through the week without having to pop to the store 😉
How wonderful to have totally fresh homemade bagels! Delicious I am sure!!
Thanks so much for this! I will definitely try them!
They certainly look delicious. I generally use my bread making machine to make the bread products for the week. Enjoyed the music.
These look delicious – we'll have to give making them them a try.
A funny – I always have the sound off on my computer, but today I have it in on and the music playing here at your house is gorgeous! What a nice surprise 🙂
You know… I have never done this… and have always wanted to. 🙂 I am going to have to try this!! How much is 450 grams of flour? eeks??
