Being hooked onto baking breads recently. Decided to try out this easy Bagel recipe which I found online. The texture of the bagels tasted quite differently from the one I had outside. These bagels had the most fluffiest texture that I've ever tasted! I think it tasted more fluffier than my Hokkaido Milk loaf >.<
These bagels were for Sunday's Breakfast. I've always love having home-made breakfast! Anyway, they were supposed to be plain bagels but my Royal Prince Charming can get fussy occasionally, thus I had to turn them into savoury bagels instead!

Hi, its me again. :) Do you have to knead the dough before the first proofing? Cos' I find that most bread making does it this way; And after the punching of air, how long do you need to knead? I'm excited to try as you were saying it's so soft and if it doesn't require too much kneading. By the way, was wondering can this work as donuts since you are trying to make donuts for your little brother. :)
Hi Aimei,
Kneading the dough before proofing here is not required because the dough is very sticky.
Once the dough is ready after proofing, you can then proceed to knead it. Btw, because most of the bagels that I have tried were always hard, therefore I felt that these batch of bagels were very fluffy. In fact, it's even fluffier than my hokkaido milk loaf! Can't believe it either. However, do note that the bagels were not very fluffy the next day and I had to steam them before eating.
Anyway, not to worry because some may prefer "harder" bagels. I chilled the bagels in the fridge and my hubby ate one and fell in love with it because he said it tasted similar to Chilled Krispy Creme donuts. My little brother like that too :)
Also, if you really keen to make a very fluffy bagel, you can add in more butter :) The original recipe requires 15g of butter but I reduced to 10g because my hubby likes chewy bread. I hope this helps ;)
Thanks alot! Will try it one day! :)
As for the html code, I think I do need help, Haha. Thanks for offering to help. Will consult you when I have problems. :)
Hi aimei,
It's my pleasure :)
Hi Aimei,
May I know what type of milk did you use?
Sweetened Condensed Milk or Evaporated milk?
Thanks a lot=D
