Honey Wheat Bagels

Making bagels is easy!  Yesterday I made these honey wheat bagels and they were tasty.  We had them before church this  morning with cheesy scrambled eggs nestled in the middle.  Bagelwich!  You can see more photos on bagel making here.

Honey Wheat Bagels
  • 1-1/2 c. warm water
  • 2 t. yeast
  • 1/4 c. honey
  • 2 t. salt
  • 2 T. vegetable oil
  • 2/3 c. quick cooking oats
  • 1-1/2 c. whole wheat flour
  • 1-1/2 c. white flour
In the bowl of your stand mixer combine water and honey. Sprinkle yeast on top and let proof for 5 minutes.  Add oats, flours, salt and vegetable oil. Knead for 5 minutes with the dough hook, adding more water or flour, until dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Shape into a ball, cover and let rise until doubled, 30 to 45 minutes. Once doubled divided into 9 equal pieces and shape into balls, pulling the dough under so that you have a smooth ball.  Let balls rest for 10 minutes. Poke hole in the middle of dough ball and pull out from the middle to form a bagel/doughnut shape.  Let rise on greased cookies sheets for 45 minutes. Meanwhile bring a large pot of water to boil with 2 tablespoons sugar.  When ready to boil, gently remove the bagels from the cookie sheet being careful not to deflate and boil for 1 minute on each side. Remove to wire rack to drain. Return to greased cookie sheet and bake at 400 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown.
