INGREDIENTS

  • 1 1/8 cups water (70 to 80 degrees F)
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup quick-cooking oats
  • 3 cups bread flour
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 3/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans
  • TOPPING:
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

DIRECTIONS

  1. In bread machine pan, place the first seven ingredients in order suggested by manufacturer. Select dough setting (check dough after 5 minutes of mixing; add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or flour if needed). Just before the final kneading (your machine may audibly signal this), add the cranberries and pecans.
  2. When cycle is completed, turn dough onto a lightly floured surface; cover and let rest for 5 minutes. Divide into eight balls. Push thumb through the center of each ball to form a 1-in. hole. Place on a lightly floured surface. Cover and let rest for 5 minutes.
  3. In a large saucepan, bring 2-qt. water to a boil. Drop bagels, one at a time, into boiling water. Cook for 45 seconds; turn and cook 45 seconds longer. Remove with a slotted spoon; drain well on paper towels.
  4. Combine brown sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over bagels. Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Bake at 375 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
