When we last left our struggling baker, she was discouraged by her abysmal bagels.........
I did not try again on Thursday, but I did make some on Friday. Here is a picutre of the results:
As you can tell, these were not any different than the first ones I tried to make. So, my search for a new and different recipe was on....
The first recipe was from Rhonda Barfields "Feed your family for $12.00 a day", the next recipe came from Tawra Kellam's "Dining on a Dime" cookbook. I have come to trust these cookbooks, so I could not understand my problem.
I then decided to look at some of my other cookbooks, like my Better Homes and Gardens one.....I found one! And here are the results:
The biggest difference in this recipe was broiling the bagels before boiling them! This way, they retained their shape when I put them in the boiling water. Not only do they look nice, they taste good also!
Anyways, I made these on Sunday.... I will start making them more often. I also plan to make some for the freezer!
Just thought I would let everyone know how my bagel project went..... have a great day!

What a difference! I've been meaning to try these with my little one. You may have just saved me from a very unhappy 4-year-old.
