Description

These irresistible homemade cinnamon raisin bagels offer a perfect chewiness, swirled with sweet raisins and warm cinnamon. They are a delightful morning treat, reminiscent of cozy weekends and grandmother’s kitchen, perfect for any brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet (2 ¼ tsp) active dry yeast
  • 1 ½ cups warm water (110°F/43°C)
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup raisins
  • Honey for boiling

Instructions

  1. Activate the Yeast: Mix warm water, sugar, and yeast in a bowl. Let sit for 5 minutes until frothy.
  2. Make the Dough: Combine the activated yeast mixture with flour, cinnamon, and raisins in a large bowl. Mix until shaggy; knead on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth.
  3. First Rise: Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a towel, and let rise for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  4. Shape Bagels: Punch down the dough and divide into eight pieces. Roll each into a ball and poke a hole in the center.
  5. Boil Bagels: Boil each bagel in honey-sweetened water for about 1 minute per side.
  6. Bake: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Bake boiled bagels on parchment-lined sheet for approximately 20 minutes until golden brown.

Notes

  • For longer storage, freeze bagels and toast directly from frozen.
  • Feel free to add nuts like walnuts or pecans for extra crunch.
  • Experiment with spices like nutmeg or vanilla extract for unique flavors.
  • Do not skip the boiling step; it is crucial for the classic chewy texture.
  • Let bagels cool completely before slicing to maintain structure.
