Description
Recipe for making pumpkin and oat bagels at home.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup warm water (105-115°F)
- 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 egg white (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon water (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon coarse salt or oats (for topping)
Instructions
- Dissolve yeast and brown sugar in warm water. Let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
- In a large bowl, combine pumpkin puree and salt with the yeast mixture.
- Gradually add flour and rolled oats, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal pieces.
- Shape each piece into a rope and form a bagel shape, pinching the ends together firmly.
- Place bagels on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover and let rest for 20 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon of brown sugar to the water.
- Boil bagels in batches for 30 seconds per side.
- Remove bagels from water and place them back on the baking sheet.
- Whisk the egg white with 1 tablespoon of water to make an egg wash. Brush the tops of the bagels with the wash and sprinkle with coarse salt or oats.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown.
- Cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
Notes
- For a chewier bagel, boil for 1 minute per side instead of 30 seconds.
- If you do not have pumpkin puree, you can substitute with sweet potato puree.
- Store cooled bagels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
