Equipment
- Large mixing bowl
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
- Pot for boiling
- Oven
Ingredients
- 4½ cups bread flour
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons instant yeast
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup warm milk
- 1 cup frozen wild blueberries
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons barley malt syrup optional
- Egg wash for brushing optional
Instructions
Make the Dough:
- In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients: bread flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
- In another bowl, combine the warm milk and frozen blueberries. Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry, kneading the dough for 8-10 minutes until smooth.
Shape the Bagels:
- Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each into a ball, then create a hole in the center and stretch to form a bagel shape.
Proof the Dough:
- Place the bagels on a parchment-lined baking sheet and cover. Let them rise for 20 minutes. After the first rise, refrigerate for 12-24 hours for better flavor and texture.
Boil the Bagels:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add honey or barley malt syrup to the water. Boil each bagel for 1-2 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Bake the Bagels:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the bagels on a baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.
Finish and Serve:
- Brush the bagels with an egg wash before baking for a shiny, golden crust. Let cool slightly before serving.
