Bagels Recipe

Category Breads
Yield 12 servings

Ingredients
4 1/2 cup Flour
2 package Active dry yeast
1 1/2 cup Warm water -- 110-115 F
3 tbsp Sugar
1 tbsp Salt
1 tbsp Sugar
Preparation
In mixer bowl combine 1 1/2 cups flour and the yeast. Combine warm water, 3
Tbls. sugar and the salt. Pour over flour mixture. Beat at low speed for 30
seconds, scraping sides of bowl constantly. Beat 3 minutes on high speed.

Stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can mix in with a spoon. Turn
out onto lightly floured surface. Knead in enough remaining flour to make a
moderately stiff dough. Continue kneading until smooth and elastic, 6 - 8
minutes. Cover; let dough rest 10-15 minutes.

Cut into 12 portions; shape into smooth balls. Punch a hole in the center
of each with a floured finger. Pull gently to enlarge hole to 1 1/2 to 2
inches. Place on a greased baking sheet. Cover; let rise 20 minutes. Broil
5 inches from heat for 1 1/2 - 2 minutes on each side. Tops should not
brown.

Heat 1 gallon water and 1 tablespoon sugar to boiling; reduce heat. Cook
bagels, 4 or 5 at a time, for 7 minutes, turning once. Drain. Place on
greased baking sheet. Bake in 375 degree oven 25 - 30 minutes.
