1

Mix together the flour and the salt. Melt the butter in a pan, then add the water and dissolve the yeast and the honey in the liquid. Add the liquid and the lemon juice to the flour and briefly knead to a smooth dough. Cover and let rise until it has doubled in size.

2

Press down the dough and briefly let rise again.

3

Cut the dough into 10 equal pieces and form each piece into a ball. Use the handle of a wooden spoon to make a hole in the middle and then turn the dough to form rings of 10-12 cm in diameter. Cover the rings and leave to rise for another 15 minutes.

4

Boil the water and briefly submerge the rings in batches into the hot water. Remove from the water and place the bagles on a baking paper lined baking tray. Brush the bagels with the whisked egg yolk and sprinkle with poppy seeds, sesame seeds or flaxseeds.

Baking

Bake the bagels for 15-20 minutes in the middle of an oven pre-heated to 200°C. Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack. Cut the bagels and fill with the filling of your choice.

Tip

Fill the freshly baked bagels and eat immediately.
