Homemade everything bagels

Weekends are something special for me. They’re the days I get to be with my family all day, and I am able to be my most creative self. Breakfasts are usually a bit more special than the weekday parfait. 
​

This weekend, I wanted to try my hand at homemade bagels. I found the recipe over at Love and Lemons and the reviews were so great I knew it would be worth my while. The recipe is something to start the night before because they need to be refrigerated over night.

In the morning, they’ll sit out an hour before proofing. I always make sure to get up before Dane and Lenna each morning, so I enjoyed a nice cup of coffee in silence while the bagels sat. ​​

Before they went into the oven, I brushed on a simple egg wash and then seasoned the bagels with my Homemade Everything Bagel Seasoning. When they were out, I sliced mine in half and toasted it, while Dane turned his into a bacon and egg bagel sandwich.

Once our vegetable garden is more established, I’d love to try this recipe again for jalapeno bagels and blueberry bagels! I can’t wait!
