Chocolate Multi Grain Protein Bagels Recipes

Steps:

• Start a large pot of water to almost boiling.
• Combine all ingredients and mix in mixer or knead for 8 minutes. Let dough raise until about double (about 15 to 20 minutes).
• Roll out dough into a rope and cut into 12 even pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and poke your finger through it. Twirl on your finger until the hole is about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Place on cookie sheet and let rest about 5 to 8 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 385°F and turn water up to boil.
• When water is boiling drop about 4 bagels 1 at a time into the water for about 1 1/2 minutes turning each one about half way through. Place back on cookie sheet.
• When all bagels have been boiled, place them in the oven for about 25 to 30 minutes.
• Let them cool completely before putting them in storage bags.

Steps:

• Combine the flour and water with 20 grams (1 tablespoon) of the malt syrup, 25 grams (1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon) of the salt, and all of the yeast in the 6-quart bowl of a heavy-duty stand mixer and mix with the hook attachment on the stir setting until the mixture forms a shaggy dough. Increase the speed to low and knead until the dough is no longer sticky and springs back when pressed with a finger, about 10 minutes. It may still be slightly tacky, which is okay. If the dough gets stuck on the hook at any time during the mixing, stop the machine and pull the dough off the hook, pushing it to the side of the bowl so that it can continue kneading.
• Move the dough to the counter and shape into a ball. Place in a tall 2- to 4-quart transparent container, pressing down the top to flatten the dough. Mark the dough height on the outside of the bowl with tape or a rubber band. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and leave to rise at room temperature until the dough is about 1 1/2 times its original size, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Meanwhile, line two half sheet pans with parchment paper and have standing by.
• When the dough has increased to 1 1/2 times its original size, punch the dough down and transfer to a cutting board. Cut into 12 (4-ounce) pieces and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Working with one piece at a time, roll each into a 16- to 18-inch-long snake, making sure to pop any large air bubbles, and then wrap around the palm of your hand twice to form a tight circle. With the seam side down and the snake still around your hand, roll your hand across the counter to seal the ends together. (Sometimes my wood board gets so dry, the dough just slides. If that happens, moisten the surface lightly with water. A spritz bottle is perfect for this.) Continue rolling on the counter to seal the seam all the way around the bagel. Transfer to the prepared pans and repeat with the remaining dough, evenly spacing 6 bagels on each tray. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate, preferably in the coldest part of your fridge, for 18 to 24 hours. (Tip: I place metal ramekins, the kind you might serve melted butter in, in the corners of the first pan so that I can stack the second pan on top of it without crushing the bagels below. This will save a lot of refrigerator space.)
• When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and place a rack in the center position. You'll be boiling, then baking the bagels, so you'll need to set up a work area around your cooktop. You'll need to drain the bagels as they come out of the water (a wire rack over a pan or even a kitchen towel will suffice) and you'll need a fresh piece of parchment to put them on for baking.
• Remove one pan of bagels from the refrigerator and set by the cooktop until they soften and register between 60 and 65 degrees F, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a gallon of water to a boil over high heat in a wide pot, along with the remaining 80 grams (1/4 cup) of malt syrup and 50 grams (3 tablespoons) of salt. Once the water boils, reduce the heat to a gentle, not rolling, boil. At this point, remove the second pan of bagels from the fridge so they can warm up while you cook the first batch.
• Check the temperature of the first pan of bagels. If they're at 60 degrees F, carefully place three into the boiling water, making sure they don't overlap. (Use your fingers for this.) Boil for 1 minute, flipping if they rise to the surface in 30 seconds or less. (Don't worry if the bagels don't fully rise to the surface.) Remove the bagels with a slotted spoon and set them on the rack to drain and cool. Repeat with the other three bagels. As they drain, replace the parchment on their original pan (trust me, they'll stick if you use the old paper again) and then move the bagels back to it.
• Bake for 10 minutes, then rotate the pan and continue baking until the sides of the bagels are golden brown and the bottoms are firm, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and transfer the bagels to a cooling rack.
• Repeat the same steps with the second pan of bagels.
• Let all of the bagels cool at least 10 minutes before serving. If you're not planning to eat all of them in one sitting, slice the cooled bagels, then wrap in plastic wrap, transfer to a gallon-size zip-top freezer bag, and freeze until ready to eat. To reheat, wrap frozen bagels in a paper towel and microwave on high to thaw, 30 seconds to 1 minute, then toast if desired.

Steps:

• If using bread machine, place everything in the pan following manufacturer's instructions. [For my machine, that means putting in the wet: peanut butter, chocolate chips, water; then the dry (flour, salt, sugar) directly on top, so that there is an island on top of the water. Make an indentation on the side of the flour with your finger and pour the yeast into this indentation so that it isn't touching any of the wet ingredients]
• Then start machine on DOUGH setting. If not using bread machine: follow these instructions up to the first rise: .
• Once dough has doubled in size / bread machine is done with the cycle, grab dough and cut in 4 equal pieces that you quickly shape into rounds.
• Let rest until the indentation created with your finger slowly climbs back into place, about 10-15 minutes.
• Cut each piece into two, roll into a ball. flatten with your palm, insert your thumb in the center of it, and twirl dough around it until the hole reaches about 1 1/2 inches in size.
• Let bagels rest for 5 minutes.
• In the meantime, bring water in a medium saucepan to a boil.
• preheat oven to 400°F prepare a couple of cookie sheets with parchment paper.
• Once the bagels have rested, place 2 bagels at a time and let boil for 1 minute in all, turning them around after 30 seconds, and trying to avoid having them touch. they should sink, then rise after a few seconds. don't worry if they don't sink, it'll work out just fine.
• Scoop out bagels with a slotted spoon. place on cookie sheet. repeat until all bagels have been boiled.
• Bake your bagels for about 20 minutes, one sheet at a time. You can tell your bagels are done by their rich golden brown color and hollow sound when bottom is tapped.
• Cool on a cookie rack.

Steps:

• Combine 1 1/4 cup water, flour, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, vegetable oil, and yeast in the mixing bowl of a stand mixer. Mix on low speed using the dough hook until well-developed, about 8 minutes. To ensure the gluten has developed fully, cut off a walnut-sized piece of dough. Flour your fingers, and then stretch the dough: if it tears immediately, the dough needs more kneading. Fully developed dough should form a thin translucent "windowpane."
• Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel, and let rise for 2 hours.
• Punch the dough down, place it on a lightly floured work surface, and use a knife or dough scraper to divide the dough into 6 pieces (or more, for smaller bagels). Roll each piece of dough into a sausage shape about 6 inches long. Join the ends to form a circle. Repeat with the remaining dough, and let the bagels rest for 15 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange small plates with poppy seeds, sesame seeds, and onion flakes next to the baking sheet.
• Bring 4 quarts water to a boil in a large pot. Add honey, if desired (see Editor's Note). Boil the bagels, three at a time, until they rise to the surface of the pot, about 1 minute per side. Remove the bagels with a slotted spoon and place them on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Dip the tops of the wet bagels into the toppings and arrange them, seeds up, on the baking sheet. Sprinkle with coarse salt, if desired. Bake in the preheated oven until the bagels begin to brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine warm water, yeast, and sugar in a bowl. Set aside until dissolved, about 5 minutes.
• Combine bread flour, whole wheat flour, rolled oats, vital wheat gluten, wheat germ, flaxseed meal, and sea salt in a large bowl. Stir in buttermilk. Add the yeast mixture and honey; stir until no dry spots remain. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let dough rest 20 minutes.
• Turn dough onto a floured work surface. Knead about 7 minutes; it will be soft and slightly sticky. Add more flour if needed. Shape into a ball. Spray a mixing bowl with cooking spray. Place dough in the bowl and turn to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 2 hours in warm, draft-free place.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line one 11x17-inch baking sheet with waxed paper, another with a flour sack towel, and 2 remaining sheets with parchment paper sprinkled with cornmeal.
• Combine 3 quarts water and brown sugar in a large pot; bring to a boil.
• Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead briefly. Cut dough in half; return 1 half to the bowl and cover. Form the other half into a cylinder. Cut into quarters and cut quarters in half, yielding 8 equal-sized pieces of dough. Shape dough pieces into balls. Repeat with remaining half of dough.
• Flatten a dough ball slightly; press index fingers through the center until they meet. Rotate fingers to stretch a hole about 1 3/4-inch in diameter. Set bagel on waxed paper-lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough balls.
• Reduce heat to simmer under the sugar-water mixture. Boil 2 bagels at at time; cooking each for 30 seconds per side. Transfer boiled bagels to the towel-lined baking sheet to drain. Transfer bagels to the parchment paper-lined sheets.
• Mix egg white and 1 teaspoon cool water together in a small bowl; use mixture to brush tops of bagels.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes. Flip bagels and continue baking until golden brown, about 13 minutes more.
• Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Steps:

• Put oats into a food processor or blender and process for 1 minute.
• FOR ABM: put all ingredients into bread machine in the order listed and select dough cycle.
• FOR STAND MIXER:.
• Proof yeast (mix yeast, warm water, and honey together- let stand 5 minutes until foamy).
• Using the dough hook, mix in stand mixer with other ingredients on low speed until a ball forms around the dough hook and the sides of the bowl are clean. Adjust the setting to level 2, and allow the dough hook to knead for 2 minutes.
• Turn into a greased bowl and cover, let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled, about 90 minutes.
• BY HAND:.
• Proof yeast (mix yeast, warm water, and honey together- let stand 5 minutes until foamy).
• Combine all ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon until the dough begins to come together.
• Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until all ingredients have come together.
• Knead an additional 8-10 minutes or until dough has become smooth and pliable.
• Turn into a greased bowl and cover, let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled, about 90 minutes.
• All methods:.
• When dough has completed it's rising (is doubled in size) or dough cycle is complete, set dough to rest on a lightly floured surface, and cut dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a small ball and flatten.
• Poke a hole in the middle of each with your thumb. and twirl the dough on your finger or thumb to enlarge the hole, and to even out the dough around the hole.
• Cover bagels with a clean cloth, and let rest for 10 minutes.
• While bagels are resting, bring 3 quarts of water to a hard boil in a large pot.
• Sprinkle an ungreased baking sheet with cornmeal (I usually use parchment paper and sprinkle the cornmeal over the top).
• Stir 3 tablespoons of molasses into the boiling water.
• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Carefully transfer bagels to boiling water.
• Boil for 1 minute, turning half way through.
• Drain briefly on clean towel.
• Arrange boiled bagels on baking sheet.
• Glaze tops with egg white, and sprinkle with your choice of toppings- poppy seeds, sesame seeds, etc.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until well browned.
• After baking, bagels without toppings can be brushed with butter and sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar, brushed with garlic butter, etc.
