I’ve been on an enormous breakfast kick the final couple weeks. I cross by means of levels sometimes, and proper now I am very a lot into all of the breakfast foods. Last week on my own I shared breakfast kind potatoes and these (springy) lemon ricotta blueberry pancakes.

But this week? It is all about bagels. More specifically, cinnamon crunch bagels. 100 pc impressed by the Panera Bread cinnamon crunch bagels I used to love so a lot as a child (anyone else?!). I created my very own home made version, and I dunno, I suppose they may just be better. To be fair, I even haven't had the Panera model seeing that I was possibly 10 years old. So it’s been a while, but, going from memory, I kinda suppose my home made model is better.

Why? They have the excellent ratio of chewy bagel, to cinnamon sugar crunch. Meaning, they’re heavy at the cinnamon crunch, and that’s just the method they ought to be.

Here’s the story.

After four or 5 rounds, I gave up. Again. It’s no longer that the bagels have been bad, they tasted just fine. But you guys recognize me, I even have my standards. I only wish to share the very greatest recipes with you guys. Because of this I just by no means shared any of these bagels attempts.

But then I matter that a whereas again I created a recipe for cinnamon crunch bagels. As quickly as I matter that, I knew I wanted to make a brand new and improved cinnamon crunch bagel. Because well, what’s higher than a cinnamon crunch bagel?

Absolutely nothing.

Well, ok. I suppose this possibly relies on just what you’re within the temper for. If you hope a bagel…and you furthermore may hope one thing sweet…then there’s nothing higher than these bagels.

If you’ve by no means made bagels, don't fear, they're easy and easy, incredibly with this recipe.

My trick is to make use of prompt yeast, which makes blending up the dough tremendous easy, and retains the growing time very minimal. What’s pretty awesome, is that these bagels require no fancy ingredients. Just water, yeast, honey, flour, cinnamon, salt, and butter.

That’s it. And in case you could have a kitchen with one thing stocked in it, then you definitely most possible have these foods on hand.

Mix the dough, permit it rise, after which form the dough into bagels. Meaning, roll into balls, punch a gap by means of the middle of every ball, and create a bagel shape. EASY.

The trickiest phase about bagels is the boiling process, which pretty isn’t tough at all. Simply drop the bagels, a number of at a time, into boiling water and boil till they float. Boiling the bagels earlier than baking provides them the chew factor, and that vintage “bagel” taste.

Now, the essential thing to the ones bagels is the cinnamon crunch topping. It’s only a easy blend of brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter. Simply sprinkle the topping over higher every one bagel earlier than baking. As the bagels bake up, the topping melts and slowly starts to caramelize over the bagel, fitting crunchy.

I do hope to word that the cinnamon sugar will fall off the higher of the bagel and onto the pan. When this happens, just use a spoon to quickly, and carefully, scoop the sugar up off the pan. Then merely spoon it again over the bagel. This is why it’s fundamental to line your baking sheets with parchment paper.

Once the bagels have cooled off relatively (like just no longer piping hot), be certain to take pleasure in one recent out of the oven. These are huge smeared with butter or cream cheese, and yes, the leftover bagels are past nice toasted. These bagels make for a pretty fun weekday breakfast…or lunch!

So, what are your weekend plans? hopefully bagel making and lots of relax time. Yep, it’s a lot needed. See y’all Sunday!
