Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the water, yeast, brown sugar, flour, and salt.
- Mix well using a wooden spoon, dough whisk, or hand/stand mixer until a rough dough forms.
- Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and knead until it is no longer sticky to the touch, about 5 minutes.
- Place the dough in a well-oiled bowl and let it rise until doubled in size, about 90 minutes.
- Once it has risen, punch the dough down and place on a floured surface again.
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces and roll each into a ball.
- Stick your finger through the center of the ball to create a hole and continue to shape the dough into a bagel.
- Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil and whisk in the honey.
- Boil the bagels one at a time for 1 minute per side.
- Place the bagels on the lined cookie sheet and brush them with the beaten egg
- Season with your favorite toppings (optional).
- Bake until the bagels are golden brown, about 20-25 minutes.
Notes
- Storage: Store homemade bagels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- Flour: For chewier bagels, use bread flour or a mix of bread and all-purpose flour.
- If your dough has a wet consistency, your bagels will turn out crispier, which is something you might like.
- Use metal tongs to remove your bagels from the boiling water before placing them on the baking sheet to bake in the oven.
- Brushing a generous amount of egg over the bagels will leave them with a shinier crust.
