BAGELS

Add ingredients to pan as per basic white bread recipe. You can substitute up to half

the white flour for wholemeal or brown if you wish. Select DOUGH (7). When the

process is complete proceed as follows:

Cut the dough into 15-20 equal pieces and roll into balls. Make a 1” (2.5cm) hole in the

middle to form a ring shape. Cover and allow to rise in a warm place for 30-40

minutes.

Meanwhile bring 2 litres of water and 2 tbsp of sugar to a gentle boil. When the bagels

are ready, add to the water 2 at a time and boil uncovered for 2 minutes turning once.

Place bagels on a lightly greased baking tray and bake in a pre-heated oven for 30
minutes at 180

°

C (gas 5) – or until golden brown.

Ingredients

Amount

Water

250ml

Strong white flour

460g

Sugar

2 tbsp

Butter

2

tbsp

Salt

1 tsp

Yeast

2 ½ tsp

You will also need 250g of butter or margarine, 1 egg, a little milk and some cling film.

Method: Place the ingredients into the bread pan, select DOUGH mode, press START.

Meanwhile, place the butter between two pieces of cling film. Using a rolling pin gently

roll the butter until it becomes a 1” thick rectangular slab. Remove to the fridge to chill.

When the dough cycle is complete remove the dough from the machine. On lightly

floured surface roll the dough into a rectangle 10” x 12”. Remove the chilled butter

slab from the fridge, remove the cling film and lay the butter across the dough in such

a way that the dough can be folded over to form a sandwich with the butter in the

middle. Roll the dough again into a rectangular sheet 10” x 12”. Try to make sure the

butter between the dough spreads out evenly as you go.
