No-yeast bagels

The Corona pandemic has imposed a new situation on all of us. The severe shortage in flour and in yeast has forced me to go back to old recipes I had that included either little or no yeast at all.

These bagels is one example. They come out of the oven crunchy and smell so good.

• 1 c. all-purpose flour

• 1 flat tsp. Baking powder

• 1 c. yogurt

• ½ tsp. salt

• 1/2 tsp. sugar.

• toppings: sesame seeds / zaatar / poppy seeds

1. Mix the ingredients.

2. Divide the dough into 4 or more for mini bagels.

3. Roll each piece into a long rope and form a round bagel. 

4. Dip in water and then dip in any topping you like: sesame seeds, zaatar, poppy seeds, everything but bagel seasoning.

5. Bake (380°)  for 30 minutes.
