Bagels

Chia and Sea Salt Bagels (Vegan and Gluten/Soy Free):

- 2 cups of flour: Pick your fav

*Sorghum flour

*Tapioca Flour

*Brown Rice Flour

*Almond Flour

*Oat Flour

-2 tsp honey/agave

-2 tsp molasses

-2 tsp baking soda

-1/2 tsp baking powder

-1 yeast packet

-2 tsp xanthen gum

(you can also buy a mix like Pamela's products)

Mix all of the above and add 1 1/3 c warm water and 1/4 c olive oil - mix for 3 min and then roll into balls (this recipe made 12 small bagels or 7 reg sized). let rise for 1 hour in a warm place - like on the oven while it is pre-heating. Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees. after 1 hour put your thumb in the middle of each ball to create a hole. Boil the bagel for 30 sec and then roll in your fav topping like Chia seeds (shown) or celtic sea salt - you can also just sprinkle with your fav toppings - I also "painted" coconut oil on mine to get the seeds/salt to stick better - but the batter is pretty sticky so it should be fine. bake for 30 min

- side note - these are delicious, they passed the taste test by the rowers at my house - they are chewy and if you refrigerate them right after baking them they stay chewy - if you let them sit out and cool they will be more airy.
