Ingredients
  

  • 6 cup strong bread flour
  • 1 3/4 tbsp instant dry yeast
  • 2 tbsp pure date syrup
  • 2 cup water, at 106ºF/41ºC
  • 1 tbsp water, at 106ºF/41ºC
  • 1 tbsp sea salt
  • 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • Vegan oat cream, to brush the bagels
  • Chia seeds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, etc. for garnish

Instructions
 

  • In a medium-sized bowl, combine the date syrup, instant dry yeast and 1 cup of the water at 106ºF/41ºC (use a thermometer!). Let sit for 10 minutes.
  • After 10 minutes have passed, add the extra-virgin olive oil and the 1 cup and 1 tbsp of warm water left to the bowl containing the date syrup-yeast-water mixture, and slowly stir well.
  • Combine the bread flour and sal in the bowl of your stand mixer. Mix to combine. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the contents from the medium-sized bowl with the yeast mixture. Run the mixer on low speed, using the dough hooks, for 1-2 minutes, pausing occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Increase the speed of the mixer to medium-high and let the mixer run for 5 minutes more, until the dough becomes a smooth ball. If you are kneading by hand, knead for about 10 minutes.
  • Grease a large bowl with olive oil, and place the ball of dough in it, making sure its surface is all covered in olive oil too. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and set aside at room temperature in a dark and dry place for 1-2 hours or until it has doubled in size.
  • Punch down the dough to collapse any air bubbles that have built up inside. Cover and let rest for 10 more minutes. Divide it into 10-12 pieces.
  • Shape into smooth balls and place onto parchment paper lined baking trays, 2 inches apart from each other. Cover the trays with clean kitchen towels and let them rest covered for 15 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 428ºF/220ºC.
  • Use a small cookie cutter to make holes through the centre of each dough ball. The cookie cutter must have a 1 1/4″ diameter, or the hole will close during baking, if it’s too small. Cover the trays again with the kitchen towels.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a low boil.
  • Carefully and working in batches, simmer the bagels for 1 ½ minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the water and place back onto a wire rack to drain.
  • Place the bagels back onto the parchment paper lined baking trays.
  • Pour a few tablespoons of vegan oat cream in a small bowl, and with a basting brush, brush the bagels with the cream. Sprinkle them with the seeds of your choice. We used chia seeds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and sesame seeds.
  • Bake in batches for 25 minutes on the middle rack of the oven, or until golden.
  • Cover the second tray with the kitchen towel and once the first tray is finished baking, bake the second one.
  • Remove to a cooling rack to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
  • Best eaten the same day. Enjoy!

Notes

Store in a sealed plastic bag at room temperature in a dark and dry place for 2-3 days, or freeze in an air-tight container for up to a month.
