Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Bread flour
- 7 grams Active dry yeast
- 300 milliliters Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Agave syrup
- 1 tablespoon Baking soda
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently to dissolve the yeast and let it sit for about 5 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.
Add the bread flour and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix using a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. The dough should be firm but pliable.
Place the kneaded dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 220°C (430°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball.
Using your thumb, poke a hole through the center of each ball and gently stretch it to form a ring, approximately 2 inches in diameter.
In a large pot, bring water to boil. Add the agave syrup and baking soda to the boiling water.
Carefully drop two to three bagels into the boiling water and boil for 1 minute on each side. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on the prepared baking sheet.
Repeat boiling for the remaining bagels.
Bake the bagels in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crisp on the outside.
Let the bagels cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature with your favorite vegan spreads.
