After years of making this recipe, I can attest that it is foolproof and produces the best bagels I have ever eaten! I cannot even remember the last time I bought bagels from the store, and I can guarantee you that I will most likely never buy them again. This recipe is perfect for beginner or advanced bread bakers and yields perfectly professional, New York-style bagels.

Instructions
Step 1
Add 2 1/4 tsp of yeast, 1 tsp of sugar, and 1 1/4 cup of warm water to a bowl for 10 minutes until foamy.
Step 2
While the yeast is proofing, add the 3 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour and 1 1/2 tsp of salt to a bowl and mix until combined.
Step 3
Slowly add the water/yeast mixture to the flour while mixing until it forms a ball of dough.
Step 4
Gently knead in the bowl for 8-10 minutes until it forms a smooth ball of dough.
Step 5
Coat the dough in a thin layer of oil and let rest, covered, for 1 hour or until the dough has pretty much doubled in size.
Step 6
After it has doubled in size, punch the dough down and let it rest for an additional 10 minutes.
Step 7
After 10 minutes, cut the dough into 8 pieces and form each piece into a smooth ball.
Step 8
Coat your finger in flour and push it into the middle of a dough ball to form a ring. Gently stretch the ring with two fingers until it is about 1/3 the diameter of the dough ball. Repeat with the rest of the balls.
Step 9
Transfer the bagels to a baking sheet and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
Step 10
While the bagels are resting, preheat your oven to 425 degrees F / 218 degrees C and bring a pot of water to a boil.
Step 11
Add the bagels to the pot of boiling water (you may have to work in batches) and boil for 1-2 minutes on each side. They should puff up slightly.
Step 12
Once boiled, transfer the bagels back to the baking sheet and add any toppings you want.
Step 13
Bake for 20-25 minutes. Enjoy!
