I love all of Isabel’s free from mixes My favourites are the Dough balls and the Pizza mix. Both popular with my gluten eating family too.
Today I thought I would have another go at Bagels using the Pizza mix. I’ve made these a few times before but knew they should have risen more in size than they had done.
These latest yeast free gluten free Bagels are the best by far! This time I used 3 medium size eggs , rather than two eggs. I’m not sure if that made a difference. I also kneaded the bread dough for much longer. When it came to adding the bagels to boiling water , I left them in the boiling water for three minutes bubbling away ( I flipped them over once during this time ). I saw them double in size .
I finally sat them on a tea towel to dry then popped them on a greased baking tray at fan 160c for 25mins. Some I sprinkled with sesame seeds some I left plain.
I was astounded at the difference from my previous attempts. They were a great size, they did collapse a little when cooling but far superior to previous attempts.
They freeze well and are best refreshed in the microwave
