These Easy Homemade Bagels are, you guessed it, easy to make! We love making them because we can decide the size. When cutting calories and trying to eat healthier, sometimes people say, “I’ll just have half”. But who wants half a bagel?? So, we started making smaller bagels, that are half the size of a large one, and now enjoy the whole thing. You can trick yourself into getting the satisfaction of a whole bagel that’s really just the serving size of your half bagel. Or, if you’re feeling it, you can make super large ones, you’re in control!!! Plus, everyone can have the toppings they want. Some days I want an everything bagel and then some days I want a sesame topping.
Enjoy with favorite toppings!!!
My favorite bagel is in the summertime. Spread some cream cheese, top with cherry tomatoes and some Jalapeños or Serrano peppers for some heat. And of course add some bacon to really make these easy homemade bagels a yummy morning treat.
How do you make homemade bagels??
This is so easy to make and so rewarding. I don’t know why but making homemade bagels really makes me feel happy. The cost is a lot less than buying them at the local shop. I don’t know about you but I’m always looking for ways to save money!!! Plus, you don’t have to drive to the store to pick them up. For us the local shop is 20 minutes away. So, I’m not going there very often.
Also, the bagels can be made small or very large depending on how hungry you might be. The toppings can be different for everyone in the house.
So, with 5 ingredients – Yeast, Sugar, Flour Salt and your favorite topping, plus water. Some mixing together, letting the dough rise, form the shape and size, sprinkle on your favorite topping, boil them and then cook in the oven for a few minutes and you have nice fresh hot bagels ready for breakfast or brunch.
Toppings for Easy Homemade Bagels
Some toppings for the bagels are; Everything bagel seasoning, sesame seeds, onion flakes, parmesan cheese, poppy seeds, garlic, salt, or even a plain bagel. This is where you can use your imagination and have fun with making the bagels.
Just an Idea: Easy Homemade Bagels are really good with Poached Eggs and Salmon.
