Instructions
-
In a small bowl add the pumpkin, golden syrup, and warm water.
-
Mix well.
-
In a stand mixing bowl add the flour. Place the salt and yeast on opposite sides of the bowl. Add the sugar as well.
-
Give it a quick mix and then add the pumpkin mix to the flour. Add a few drops of the orange gel food colouring. I accidently added in way too much, so my pumpkins bagels were far more neon than I wished. Still tasted amazing though.
-
Mix or knead until the dough is lovely and smooth. Shape into a ball.
- Oil a large bowl and place the dough inside. Cover with clingwrap and leave in a warm place to rise for an hour.
- Bring a small saucepan of water to the boil.
- Preheat your oven to 190°C
- Line the trays with baking paper.
-
Take the dough out of the bowl and press down to flatten. Weigh the dough and divide into eight even pieces. Place a piece of clingwrap over the pieces of dough.
-
Take a piece of dough and bring the sides together and pinch to form a parcel.
-
Turn the dough over so it is now seam down. Gently shape the dough into a ball.
-
Flour your index and thumb. Use those two fingers to pinch the dough in the centre to create a hole.
- Gently make that hole bigger. Place the bagel onto one of the baking trays.
-
Keep doing this process until all the bagels have been shaped. Place a large piece of clingwrap on top of the bagels. Making sure they are covered so they don’t dry.
-
The next step is to boil the bagels. Gently place a bagel into the water. Wait 30 seconds and flip the bagel over. Wait another thirty seconds and then remove the bagel from the water.
-
Place it onto the other baking tray.
-
Sprinkle some poppy seeds on top of the bagels if you wish.
- Keep boiling the bagels and placing them on the tray. Make sure to leave a decent gap in between them as they will rise in the oven.
- When you have a tray of bagels place them in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes. They should feel crisp on top but not brown.
-
Transfer them to a cooling rack until they are cool enough to eat.
-
Serve, devour and enjoy. Thank you for reading my recipe.
