For a long time I held off trying to make bagels from scratch. The process seemed intimidating and with so many steps, I could easily see myself skipping something and screwing the whole thing up. About a year ago, I found a bread machine bagel recipe and loved it. With my recent switch to whole wheat flour, I'm finding that I can't just switch out the all-purpose flour for whole wheat (on some things that works fine, but with yeast breads, I've had more trouble). So, I went on the hunt for a whole wheat bagel and immediately found one at Heavenly Homemakers. I will say at the start that this recipe has a lot of steps, but if I can follow them and have beautiful bagels at the end, so can you!I followed the ingredients and directions exactly as written, so head on over to Heavenly Homemakers and check it out.

I wish I had an ounce of your energy :) You are very inspiring! The kiddos are constantly asking to make bagels and me not so much...maybe I will try this with them. Thanks! I love your blog!
