These bagels turned out GREAT!!! I followed the recipe exactly as one should when making a recipe for the first time. Instead of topping the bagels, I opted to knead cinnamon, sugar and raisins into the dough as my wife really likes cinnamon raisin bagels. It was quite a bit of work but it was WELL worth the effort. I won't ever buy another pre made bagel in my life. After tasting these, I highly doubt my wife will ever buy another bagel either.
