Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Bread flour
- 25 grams Granulated sugar
- 7 grams Instant yeast
- 10 grams Salt
- 300 milliliters Water
- 10 grams Barley malt syrup
- 15 grams Poppy seeds
- 15 grams Sesame seeds
- 15 grams Dried minced garlic
- 15 grams Dried minced onion
- 5 grams Salt flakes
- 1 tablespoon Baking soda
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread flour, granulated sugar, instant yeast, and salt. Stir to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Add the water to the dry mixture, reserving a small amount if needed to adjust the dough consistency later. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and then gently press your finger through the center of each one, forming a bagel shape.
Let the shaped bagels rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F) and prepare a large pot of water for boiling.
Add the barley malt syrup and baking soda to the boiling water. Gently drop the bagels into the water, boiling each side for about 1 minute. Remove with a slotted spoon.
In a small bowl, combine the poppy seeds, sesame seeds, dried minced garlic, dried minced onion, and salt flakes. Sprinkle this mixture generously over the boiled bagels.
Place the seasoned bagels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the bagels are golden brown.
Allow the bagels to cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy your homemade Everything bagels with your favorite spread or sandwich fillings.
