Air Fryer Everything Bagels
Everything Bagels are that perfect bite that explodes on your taste buds and is so very satisfying. They are the perfect vehicle for your favorite toppings.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 ½ cups flour
- 1 ½ tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp active dry yeast
- 1 ⅓ cups water , @ 90 degrees
- 1 ½ tsp salt
- 8 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning, +/- 1 tablespoon per bagel to taste
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, add the sugar, yeast and water. Stir and let sit for 10 minutes. Frothy bubbles should form.
- Add flour and salt and stir lightly for 1 minute. Then using your hands, lightly knead the dough. Roll the dough into itself and place in an oiled bowl. Cover with a damp towel and let dough rise for 1 hour.
- Once dough is doubled in size cut into 8 even pieces. Form each dough into a ball by tucking in the edges of the cuts and rounding out on a flat surface.
- Using your floured thumb and middle finger, create a hole in the center of the bagel and then lightly stretch the hole open about an inch.
- Get a pot of water to boiling and the lower the heat to low. Bath each bagel in the hot water for 1-2 minutes on each side. The longer the bagel soaks, the chewier the result.
- Season the bagels with 1 TBSP of the Everything Bagel seasoning.
- Spray the air fryer basket with oil and place bagels in and cook on 350 for 8 minutes.
Christina's Notes
- Recipe Can be Doubled: Simply increase the ingredients proportionately and split batches
- Make your own: No Everything Bagel Seasoning, make your own, take black and regular sesame seeds, poppy seeds, and my house seasoning blend and mix.
- Lunch: Feel free to use these bagels for lunch, a tuna melt are great on these bagels.
- Variation tip: Cut the dough in 16 pieces and make mini bagels.
- Alternate ingredient: For a fancy brunch or bridal shower, you can alternatively, top with caviar and scallions or smoked salmon.
