Oh, my husband loves them too! He ate two when he came home from work and tried to go back for more, but I told him to save some for breakfast! DELISH!!!

My kids and I made these yesterday and we LOVE them!!! I wanted to make more, but I ran out of yeast. Now I can’t wait to go to the store just to buy yeast to make some more! My kids had so much fun with helping me mix the dough and seeing it rise. Thanks so much for the recipe!

No, I never did. We like these plain ones so much, I keep sticking with them!

I made these today and they are SO good! My boys loved them! I definitely will not be buying bagels any more. Did you ever make cinnamon raisin bagels? I’d like to try making them.

Wowza! Thank you so much for posting this recipe. After many failed and sad attempts at homemade bagels- I finally have a winner! Woo Hoo! I am linking this recipe to my blog. Hope that’s okay? My hubby is going to be so excited when he sees these!

I just came up with a HEAVENLY Pumpkin Spice Bagel Recipe. You should try it if your family likes bagels. And by the way… I love your site Laura. Finally a place that loves whole wheat as much as I do. I just started a little blog (nothing as awesome as yours), you should check it out for the bagel recipe. bestofmommachef.blogspot.com

I never broil mine, just boil and bake. But I do put on an egg wash to get a nice chewy crust that is a little shiny.

No, I’ve never tried to do it without broiling. It seems that the broiling hardens the outside of them before I boil them.

I used to make bagels like these and remember how great they were! I’ve never seen a bagel recipe which called for the “broil” step, only the boil and bake. Mine turned out fine that way – I wonder if broiling adds any characteristic to them? Have you tried it without the broiling, Laura?

I’m sure if you boil them a little too long, it should be okay. But no, if they look doughy I don’t think boiling them longer will help. The water makes them look doughy anyway, I think.
