Simple Bagels Simple Bagels
I wanted to use all purpose flour to make bagels for sandwiches. I put this recipe together to use up some whole wheat flour and rye. It's also a reminder for me.I've adjusted the amount of water so that the dough is easy to knead. Hence, I don't think you'll have much trouble kneading it.You could either use fine or coarsely ground whole wheat and rye. Also adjust the time for rising to your preference. Recipe by geosmin

Soft Bagels Soft Bagels
I like chewy bagels, but I like soft and dense ones as well. These bagels can be used in many ways and are easy to eat.They're also good for sandwiches.Cover the dough with a damp cloth from the first rising to the shaping stage (Since the rising time is not very long, it is technically called “floor time”). Cloth is not needed during the second rising.For a smooth finish, remove the trapped air out of the dough really well before shaping the dough. Recipe by Masacchi -

Our family's at home, easy cafe style lunch.For steps 1-4 (kneading), if the dough seems dry, adjust the moisture of the dough by adding some water to your palms.At step10, the hot water looks brownish because I added dark brown sugar to it. It can be substituted with 2 tablespoons of honey!! Recipe by Yun -

Easy Chocolate Bagels Easy Chocolate Bagels
Because I've been baking plain bagels all along, here's my experiment to make something rather different.The water in the kettle shouldn't be boiling hot when boiling the bagels. The temperature should be a little lower than boiling so that there are small bubbles rising to the surface. When the sugar in the water sticks to the dough, it gives it a nice glaze, so I think you could use a decent amount of sugar for that. The time for rising is only an estimation.The numbers in parenthesis are the baker's percentages. Recipe by kit73 -
Whole Wheat Bagels Whole Wheat Bagels
I like healthy bagels. I heard that the whole wheat ones are lower in calories I decided to give them a try.I often add dried fruits to reduce the amount of sugar but even plain these bagels are delicious because of the whole wheat flavor.If you have made plain bagels before this way is similar.You have to be careful about the amount of water and the amount of time for proving. The room temperature and humidity will affect them. Adjust the amount of water and proving time as it goes. You can easily decide the water content as you knead the dough. Recipe by Hakueidoll -
