HOMEMADE BAGELS RECIPE BY TASTY



Homemade Bagels Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: bread flour, instant yeast, salt, white sugar, warm water, water, barley malt syrup, egg, poppy seed, sesame seed

Provided by Matt Ciampa

Categories     Breakfast

Yield 6 bagels

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 ½ cups bread flour
1 package instant yeast
1 tablespoon salt, plus 1 tsp
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 ½ cups warm water
6 qt water
1 ½ tablespoons barley malt syrup
1 egg, beaten
poppy seed
sesame seed

Steps:

  • In a food processor, add the flour, yeast, salt, and sugar. Pulse until incorporated.
  • While running, slowly add the warm water until the dough balls up. You may not need all the warm water.
  • Carefully push the dough back into the blade's path and continue to process for an additional 30 seconds or until the dough is firm and stretchy, but not sticky nor squishy.
  • Gently round the dough into a ball and place in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with a damp, warm towel for an hour or until the dough has doubled in size.
  • Add the barley malt syrup to about 6 quarts of water and bring to a boil.
  • Place a tray with about 2 quarts of water on the bottom shelf of the oven. Preheat to 425°F (220°C).
  • Place the dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 6 equal pieces (roughly 5 ounces (140 g) a piece if you use a scale). Cover the pieces with a damp towel.
  • One at a time, form the dough into a ball, pinching the seams together at the bottom. Place the dough seam side down and-cupping your hand over the dough-apply gentle pressure, working the ball in circles until the seams on the bottom are smoothed out. Gently reshape the edges of the ball into a circle.
  • Using your thumb, press down into the center of the ball to the counter. Working in a circle, carefully stretch the dough into a ring until the hole at the center is about 2 inches (5 cm) in diameter.
  • Place the dough rings under a damp towel and let rise for 10 minutes.
  • Working in batches of two, place the bagels in the boiling water/syrup. They should float at the surface. Let them boil for 30 seconds, then flip and boil for an additional 30 seconds.
  • Remove the bagels from the water/syrup and gently pat dry with a clean towel.
  • Brush the tops with the beaten egg. Optionally, if you want toppings, dip the egg-washed side of the bagel into the mixture of your choice.
  • Place the bagels on a parchment paper-covered baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
  • Enjoy!

REAL HOMEMADE BAGELS



Real Homemade Bagels image

A recipe for that authentic bagel flavor and texture.

Provided by PLAWHON

Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes     Bagel Recipes

Time 3h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 ¼ cups water
4 ½ cups bread flour
3 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon instant yeast
4 quarts water
1 cup honey
2 tablespoons poppy seeds
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
2 tablespoons dried onion flakes
1 tablespoon coarse salt

Steps:

  • Combine 1 1/4 cup water, flour, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, vegetable oil, and yeast in the mixing bowl of a stand mixer. Mix on low speed using the dough hook until well-developed, about 8 minutes. To ensure the gluten has developed fully, cut off a walnut-sized piece of dough. Flour your fingers, and then stretch the dough: if it tears immediately, the dough needs more kneading. Fully developed dough should form a thin translucent "windowpane."
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel, and let rise for 2 hours.
  • Punch the dough down, place it on a lightly floured work surface, and use a knife or dough scraper to divide the dough into 6 pieces (or more, for smaller bagels). Roll each piece of dough into a sausage shape about 6 inches long. Join the ends to form a circle. Repeat with the remaining dough, and let the bagels rest for 15 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange small plates with poppy seeds, sesame seeds, and onion flakes next to the baking sheet.
  • Bring 4 quarts water to a boil in a large pot. Add honey, if desired (see Editor's Note). Boil the bagels, three at a time, until they rise to the surface of the pot, about 1 minute per side. Remove the bagels with a slotted spoon and place them on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Dip the tops of the wet bagels into the toppings and arrange them, seeds up, on the baking sheet. Sprinkle with coarse salt, if desired. Bake in the preheated oven until the bagels begin to brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

CREAM CHEESE-STUFFED BAGEL BITES RECIPE BY TASTY



Cream Cheese-Stuffed Bagel Bites Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: water, instant dry yeast, malt syrup, bread flour, salt, water, salt, baking soda, malt syrup, egg wash, onion, poppy seed, sesame seed, garlic, cream cheese

Provided by Tasty

Categories     Snacks

Yield 10 bites

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup water, warm, plus 2 tbsp
1 teaspoon instant dry yeast
1 tablespoon malt syrup
3 ½ cups bread flour
2 teaspoons salt
2 qt water
2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon baking soda
2 tablespoons malt syrup
egg wash, as needed
onion, to taste
poppy seed, to taste
sesame seed, to taste
garlic, to taste
cream cheese, frozen in 1 tbsp. balls to taste

Steps:

  • Start by activating the yeast. Add yeast and malt syrup to warm water, stir until dissolved. Once the yeast mix starts bubbling, you'll know the yeast is active.
  • Combine the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Add the activated yeast mix and form a loose dough in the bowl.
  • Turn dough out onto your surface and knead until everything comes together nicely. (If it's too dry, add more water a little bit at a time.) Transfer dough to an oiled bowl, cover and let the dough rest for 45 minutes.
  • While the dough is resting, prep your cream cheese. Freeze cream cheese into 1 tbsp. balls.
  • Punch down dough after 45 minutes, knead the dough a few times. Pull a handful of dough, form into a ball then flatten and wrap around a frozen cream cheese ball. Repeat with the rest of the dough. Place bagel balls on a parchment paper, cover and let it rest for 20 minutes.
  • While the bagel balls are resting, bring your poaching liquid ingredients to a boil over medium heat.
  • Take the rested bagel balls and boil in the poaching liquid for 15-20 seconds. Remove and place on parchment paper.
  • Brush with egg wash and sprinkle desired bagel toppings.
  • Bake in 325°F (160°C) preheated oven for 20 - 30 minutes until top is golden brown.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Activate the yeast properly: Use warm water (around 110°F/43°C) and add a pinch of sugar to help activate the yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes foamy.
  • Knead the dough thoroughly: Kneading develops the gluten in the dough, which gives bagels their chewy texture. Knead for at least 5-7 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place: This will help the yeast to work its magic and double the size of the dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth or plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out.
  • Shape the bagels carefully: Roll the dough into long ropes, then join the ends together to form a ring. Make sure to seal the edges well so that the bagels don't come apart during boiling.
  • Boil the bagels before baking: This step gives bagels their characteristic shiny crust and chewy interior. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, then carefully add the bagels. Boil for 1-2 minutes per side, or until the bagels are firm to the touch.
  • Bake the bagels until golden brown: Preheat the oven to 450°F/230°C and bake the bagels for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown.

Conclusion:

Homemade bagels are a delicious and rewarding breakfast treat. With a little time and effort, you can create bagels that are just as good as, if not better than, store-bought bagels. So next time you're craving a bagel, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
