Instructions
- In the bowl of an electric mixer or a regular large mixing bowl, mix the bread flour, yeast, salt, and brown sugar. Add the egg yolks, eggs, and water and mix on low speed until a dough begins to form.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in a warm location for about 1 hour or until the mixture becomes foamy and has doubled in size.
- Using the dough hook, beat the dough on low speed for about 7 minutes or 10 minutes by hand until the dough is smooth and workable. If the dough is too sticky, add additional flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces and roll each into a ball. Place the dough balls on a large plate or baking sheet and cover them with a damp towel. Set aside to rest for 15-20 minutes.
- To shape the bagels, use your thumb to poke a hole in the center of the dough. Stretch the dough with your thumb to widen the hole. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
- Place the bagels on a lined baking sheet and cover them with plastic wrap. Set aside to rest for 10-15 minutes.
- Position the rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 450°F.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. When the water is boiling, add the baking soda and adjust the water to a low boil. Gently drop the bagels into the water and boil for 1 minute. Flip the bagels and boil for another minute.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and dust with cornmeal if desired.
- Remove the bagels from the water with a slotted spoon and transfer them to the baking sheet.
- If using egg wash, whisk an egg and brush some of the beaten egg on top of each bagel. Sprinkle with poppy seeds or everything bagel seasoning if desired.
- Bake for 15-17 minutes, rotating the baking sheet halfway through until the bagels are golden brown.
- Transfer the bagels to a wire rack to cool.
- Serve and enjoy!
