How to Make Beautiful Bagels Using Bread Machine To Make The Dough

1. Combine all ingredients in your bread machine according to the manufacturer's instructions for the dough cycle.
2. Once the dough cycle is complete, remove the dough from the bread machine and gently punch it down.
3. Divide the dough into 8-12 equal pieces (depending on desired bagel size).
4. Shape each piece into a smooth ball, then poke a hole in the center using your finger or a well-floured rolling pin. Gently stretch and enlarge the hole to your desired size.
5. Place the bagels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
6. Let the bagels rise in a warm place for about 30-45 minutes, or until they have almost doubled in size.
7. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
8. Before baking, you can optionally boil the bagels for 1 minute per side in a large pot of simmering water to achieve a chewier texture (this step is optional).
9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bagels are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
10. Let the bagels cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy with your favorite toppings!
