These did not work for me. I made them in my bread machine and followed the recipe except for i let mine rise overnight in the frig until the next morning. They looked like they rose well but after boiling and baking they were sort of flat, so flat that when i sliced them in half all that was left of them was a crusty crunchy piece of flat bread. They had a nice taste. I dont think i will make them again.

These turned out great! I had to add a couple extra tablespoons of water to the dough, and I cut the sugar down to just over 1 Tbsp. I omitted the sugar from the boiling water, the egg glaze and the poppy seeds, too. I'll definitely make them again - probably in a bigger batch next time! Thanks for the recipe!

Fab! Living in the french countryside, bagels is something you just cannot get hold of here.. so this home made version is great. My husband was impressed! It's a keeper.

These are very good! I've tried out several bagel recipes and this is definitely one of the better ones. I make 8 bagels from the recipe, and sprinkle poppy seeds on top without the egg wash.

It is so difficult to describe how amazing these bagels turned out -- on my first try! I put parmesan cheese on them, and it's like I've died and gone to heaven. If you've made bread with the bread machine before, you can make these. Please try making them! It is 100% worth the effort (and it's not as hard as it sounds, even!).

These are awesome bagels! I make them often. I like to double the recipe, but my bread machine is kinda too small for that (it rises too high), so I usually just open the top, or take it out for the last 7 minutes or so. With a double recipe, I get about 20 nice sized bagels. I like to let them rest after shaping a little longer than 10 minutes, because I love the way they puff up a little more. I don't usually put a topping on them, so I skip the egg wash. When they come out of the oven, I brush a little melted butter or olive oil over the tops. My whole family really likes these!

I adapted this recipe to make one huge bagel. I don't use the bread machine (I just let the dough rise for about 1 hour) and I didn't boil the bagel either. Covered it with sesame. Yum!

Having never made bagels before in my life I figured I'd give this recipe a shot. Not only were they very tasty and great with butter or cream cheese, but even my roommate born and raised in New York approved of them!

INCREDIBLE bagel recipe! So easy with bread machine doing most of work! I made 6 big bagels and gave them 30 min. to rise before boiling. Perfect! I, too, increased water by 1/8 cup. Can make night before, shaped. Then let warm to room temp, boil and bake. Can freeze after baking. Additions to dough: garlic powder then top with minced garlic and cheddar cheese; cinnamon and raisins, French fried onions, or 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes... Sprinkle Kosher salt or Cheddar cheese on top. Some mentioned adding baking soda or molasses to boiling water to make outside more soft and give it a hint of glaze. YUM! THANK YOU for this recipe!

I love this recipe! I did increase the water by 1/8 cup as others had noted. This was the second time I made them in the past few weeks. The first time I made 8 bagels; this time I made 6 bagels and they were nice and big! I freeze them and eat them as I want to. They are so delicious; I will never buy store bought bagals again.

These were so good, they didn't last more than half an hour after I took them out of the oven! I made 6 bagels instead of 9, so I would have nice bakery sized bagels. I kneaded garlic powder into one, then topped it with minced garlic and cheddar cheese. On two others, I sprinkled kosher salt, on two others I sprinkled cheddar cheese, and I left the last one plain. Everyone loved them. I'll definitely make them again, but I think I'll boil them a tiny bit longer and add a bit of baking soda to the water to get an even chewier outside. Thanks for a great recipe!

These were fun to make...they stuck to my pan horribly and I'm fairly certain that I would have liked them better without the egg glaze! Otherwise thank you for easy to make bagel recipe. If I make this recipe again I will A)allow to rise on wax paper so I can more gently put on my big slotted spoon to boil and B)Either cook on wax paper or grease my pan!

my first experience with bagels. i made them the night before, (no extra water needed for my machine), formed them (8 in all)and left them in the fridge overnight. in the morning i took them from the fridge and put them on the counter to warm while the water boiled. i boiled 2 at a time (i was afraid i couldn't handle more than that). most boiled for 30 seconds on each side except, the 2 i forgot about, which got a min. on each side. i baked them for 25 min. on parchment paper. all in all they were great. the slightly longer boiled ones were a bit more chewy. the kids , my two 7 and 9 and a guest as well, loved them and there are a couple left for when the hubby gets up. the labor was marginal just a lot of waiting for the bread machine. no more store bagels or brugger's for me! i wish i had made more to freeze!!!

These turned out great. I've never made bagels before and I rarely have much success with recipes using yeast, so I wasn't optimistic, but they were easy. No idea how they tasted though. I left them unguarded for a moment and my family ate them. All of them. I added some crispy fried onion (from a tub I got in IKEA!) which I'm told made them delicious. I have a cinamon and raisin batch in the bread machine right now. Only difficulty I had was shaping the bagels, as the dough was quite springy. Great recipe, thank you. Jen

I have used this recipe several times and each time it turns out great. These have become my favorite bagles- both for the appropriate serving size (not those truck-size grocery store bagles) and the ease of preparation. I've even expanded the topping options to include garlic (brown a few minced cloves in olive oil) and asiago cheese. Paired with some home prepared cream cheese using herbs from my garden, this is a little bit of heaven on earth!

My bagels did not rise. they were flat as a pancake. Yeast was brand new, just opened, so it could not have been that. I was very disappointed, as I am an experienced baker. I don't know if I even want to try again, as it was pretty labor intensive. Oh well..
