## Ingredients

- 750 g plain flour or bread flour mix
- 3 tsp active dried yeast
- 2 tsp white sugar
- 2 tsp salt
- 450 ml tepid/warm water
- 1 egg wash or milk wash
- 1 everything bagel topping

## Instructions

1. In a bowl, combine 750g of plain or bread flour, 3 tsp of active dried yeast, 2 tsp of white sugar, and 2 tsp of salt.
2. Add 450ml of tepid water and mix well.
3. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth.
4. Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover, and let it rest in a warm spot for 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
5. Once doubled, degas the dough and divide it into 12 portions.
6. Roll each portion into a ball and create a hole in the center; make the hole larger than you think, because it will become smaller as they rise.
7. Let them rest for 30 minutes.
8. Boil the bagels in water for 1-1.5 minutes on each side, and remove them; let them drain.
9. Place them on a lined baking tray, brush with egg wash or milk wash and sprinkle with toppings.
10. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (fan-forced) for 20-25 minutes.
