New York Bagels
Description
Boiling these in a molasses bath for a few seconds will give them the traditional chewy texture of a classic New York bagel.
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F and line a large lipped baking tray with baking paper.
-
Combine gluten-free flour, yeast, sugar, and salt with a whisk.
-
Add water and olive oil and mix with a wooden spoon until rough ball forms.
-
Turn out onto a floured bench and knead for 5 minutes until it is a smooth, soft dough, adding more flour as necessary. You can also use a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment. If it is too soft to handle, place the dough in the fridge for 5 minutes.
-
Divide the dough into six equal portions and roll into circles. Using a floured finger or the handle of a wooden spoon, press a hole in the center and widen until the hole is at least an inch in diameter. Set aside 30 minutes until they begin to look puffy.
-
Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and add the molasses. When the water is at a strong rolling boil, place one to two bagels in the water for 45 seconds, flipping over halfway through. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on the baking tray. Repeat with remaining dough.
-
Brush boiled bagels with the milk and sprinkle seeds on the top.
-
Bake for 20. Let cool down before serving.
Note
Best eaten straight away, but will keep up to 3 days in an airtight container.
