Dough

  • Dissolve the yeast together with a teaspoon of honey in 300 ml of lukewarm water. Place the flours and salt in a mixing bowl, slowly stir in the yeast mixture using your kitchen machine, the dough hook of your hand mixer or a wooden spoon until dough is well combined.
  • Now knead the dough with your hands or with the kitchen machine for about 5 minutes. After 2-3 minutes, check if the dough is to dry and needs a bit more water and if so add 20 to 50ml of 1 to 3 tablespoon in sips if necessary.
    Shape the dough into a ball, place it inside the bowl and let rise, covered, in a warm place for 90 minutes until the dough has approximately doubled in size.

Shape Bagels

  • Place the dough on a floured work surface, knead it briefly, form it into a ball, and divide it into eight equal-sized pieces. Now form the dough piece one by one first into a ball and then use your fingers to form a hole of about 3-5cm or 1.5 to 2 inches in the center. Place the bagels on a baking tray (or two) lined with parchment paper and cover them with a cloth.
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F convection or 200°C/400°F regular heat. Fill the pan ¾ (about 5-7cm high) with water and bring it to a boil. Reduce heat so that the water just simmers very gently and stir in a spoon of honey. Carefully place two to three bagels in the water by using a spatula and let them float in the water bath for about a minute. Return bagels to the tray and repeat the process for all remaining bagels.

Bake Bagels

  • Finally brush the bagels with egg white and sprinkle them with poppy seeds or sesame seeds as desired. Bake them in oven for 20 minutes. If using two trays, make sure to swap the position of the bottom tray for the top tray after 10 minutes. Let them cool down on a cooling rack.
