Pumpkin Bagels
Posted by Celine on September 13, 2007
suggestions: throw in 1/4 cup golden raisins, 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, and 1 t cinnamon for an even more delightful bagel!
makes 8 bagels
3/4 cups pumpkin puree [room temp]
2/3 cups plain soy milk [room temp]
1 T softened margarine
3 cups white whole wheat flour
4 t vital wheat gluten
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 t sea salt
1 3/4 t bread machine yeast
place all ingredients in your bread machine. set on DOUGH.
if not using bread machine, follow these instructions.
once dough has doubled in size [first rise in non-bread machine instructions!]/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, shape 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 400F. prepare a couple of cookie sheets with parchment paper, Silpat, or grease them with a little oil.
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. if they don’t sink, don’t go bananas: they’re still good.
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. cool on a rack.
* you can tell your bagels are done by their rich golden brown color and hollow sound when bottom is tapped. bad bagel, bad!!! it deserves it.

You are killing me with all this fall food! I am out of town and so ready to start cooking for the fall season! I loved the decorations on the pumpkin muffins. My youngest son is ready to make those now. Anything with a skull and crossbones gets his vote! I saw pumpkins in the grocery store yesterday and got so excited! It is really the best time of the year!

haha!! yes it is. I’m so happy that the temps finally came down here.
it sucks that it’s so hard to find pureed pumpkin depending on where one lives, Emmie! I don’t get why. maybe that’s gonna change following demand?
