Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sourdough discard
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon instant yeast
  • 1 tablespoon baking soda (for boiling)
  • Optional toppings: sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or everything bagel seasoning

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sourdough discard, warm water, sugar, salt, and instant yeast until a dough forms.
  2. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  3. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  4. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  5. Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces and shape each piece into a bagel by forming a ball and poking a hole in the center.
  6. Boil each bagel in the water with baking soda for about 1-2 minutes on each side.
  7. Remove the bagels from the water and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  8. Sprinkle with your choice of toppings.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  10. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • For a more intense sourdough flavor, let the dough rise overnight in the refrigerator.
  • Experiment with different toppings to customize your bagels.
  • These bagels can be frozen for later use.
