Great base recipe! This was my first time making bagels, but I got a little adventurous anyway. I doubled the recipe and split the dough into three pieces: one I kept plain, one got chocolate chips and cinnamon, and one got Parmesan, onion powder, and garlic. Everything went pretty much exactly the way it was supposed to — my first rise took an hour, but it’s cold outside and I only had *almost* enough yeast left in my jar, so that might have contributed. Besides that, they turned out great and are delicious (I just sampled one of the chocolate-chip ones). Will definitely be making these again!

Thanks for that recipe!! Really simple and delicious!
I froze them after boiling to have some nice fresh bagels on every sunday morning breakfast with my boyfriend!

If I were to let these rise overnight, how would I do so?

I doubled the recipe and found that these freeze nicely. Freeze after boiling and wrap tightly. Thaw for 30 minutes and proceed with baking for fresh bagels anytime. The baked bagels don’t keep long; best to bake the day you plan to consume.

These were super good! They were also much easier than I was expecting. We will definitely make these again.

I made these over the weekend and they were AMAZING! The only downfall is that the recipe only makes 4-6 bagels! After making these, I don’ t think I’ll ever go back to store-bought bagels again!
