These were absolutely fantastic and waaaaay easier than I had expected. I made a few changes. I used spelt flour and added an additional 1/2 cup of 12 grain cereal from bulk barn and 1/4 cup flax seeds so I needed to add an extra few tbsp of water. I also added about 1-1/2 tsp of garlic and onion powder. I didn't broil them at all, I just skipped that step and went straight to boiling. I also didn't brush them with anything cause I didn't want the outside crispy at all. I made 8, since breaking the dough into 9 evenly was a pain, but they were quite large, so next time I think I'll split it into 10 and see how small they are, but I think that will be the perfect size for lunch or a snack. I'll be making them again tomorrow. Thanks so much for posting!!

Thank you so much! My whole family loved these! They were so nice and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I will be making these again and again. Thank you again for sharing this with us!

Hi! This was my first attempt making bagels. I waited until I'd tried some other recipes before reviewing - thought maybe I could skip the broiling step, but when I tried letting it do a slow rise, or skipping a step, the texture wasn't right. (Except with whole wheat flour, which seems to do okay with a slow cold rise.) This recipe as written is still the best recipe I've found for really bagely bagels. Takes a while, but very good! Thanks for posting.

Excellent recipe. I have lowered the salt to 1/4 tsp. for dietary reasons, and they are still fabulous. I let the dough rise longer than 20 minutes, or punch it down twice, for nice, chewy sandwich rolls. I boil them just like bagels. Thanks!!

I used 1 tsp of salt, 2 cups of ww flour and canola oil. I made some plain and some with poppy seeds. I think cutting into 8 servings would be better as I got several small ones. Hubby really liked them. I baked them on a slightly greased cookie sheet with cornmeal sprinkled. The cornmeal got a bit goey from putting the wet bagels down. It resulted in a really thick bottom crust. I think next time I'll dip the wet bagels in cornmeal for the bottom and then dip the tops too without using egg, and bake on parchment paper. I think I may skip the broil step too, I didn't really see the point, I think they'd be better with a shorter boil and longer bake too.
