Method
Making the Bagels
- Mix warm water, yeast, and a pinch of sugar in a bowl. Let sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together whole wheat flour, protein powder, and salt.
- Pour the frothy yeast mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until a rough dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise for 60-90 minutes.
- Punch down the dough, divide into equal pieces, and shape into bagels.
- Boil each bagel in a pot of water for about 1 minute on each side.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Transfer boiled bagels to the baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
- Let the bagels cool on a wire rack before serving.
