Millet Bagels
- 240 grams Strong (bread) flour
- 1 tbsp Glutenous Millet
- 1 tsp Dry yeast
- 3 tbsp Honey
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 170 ml Lukewarm water
- 1 tbsp Honey (or molasses)
- Combine the flour, millet, yeast, honey, and salt.
- Make sure you put the salt and yeast in separate areas of the bowl.
- Pour warm water over the dry ingredients, centering the water over the yeast.
- Mix the dough until it can be shaped into a single ball, and knead for 10-15 minutes.
- When the kneading is complete, divide the dough into 6 balls.
- Form these balls by stretching the sides of the dough down to the bottom and up into the center of the dough until the surface is even and smooth.
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap, or a very lightly dampened tea towel, and rest the dough for about 15 minutes.
- Roll the dough out to a 15 cm circle.
- Fold the dough in thirds by bringing one side over the center, and the other side over that, like a letter.
- Repeat the folding a second time, and thoroughly seal the seams together.
- Strech one end of the dough so it is very thin, and flatten the other end with a rolling pin.
- Form the dough into a ring shape by wrapping the flattened end of the dough around the thin end.
- Seal the seams.
- Preheat the oven to 200C.
- Bring some water to a boil in a shallow pan.
- Add 1 tablespoon of honey or molasses.
- Add in the bagels and boil on each side for 30 seconds.
- Place the bagels on a dry tea towel to dry off any excess moisture.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and bake the bagels at 200C for about 20 minutes.
- The bagels are done.
- You can eat the bagels as they are, or cut them in half and smear with your favorite fillings.
