After a few trials, we’ve perfected this recipe for homemade bagels. The steps are straightforward, though it takes a bit of patience and practice— but trust us, it's worth it. These bagels are golden on the outside, while perfectly chewy on the inside. Feel free to customize with your favourite coatings; we love sesame seeds and everything bagel seasoning. Pair them with vegan cream cheese, or hummus and fresh veggies for a delicious breakfast or brunch!

I've been looking for a good bagle recipe for a long time now and will definetly give it a try!

I'd like to take sourdough starter instead of the instant yeast. Do you have any experienxe, how much to use?

And could I use Pizza flour instead of bread flour? It's much more accessible for me..
