BWJ - Bagels




Baking with Julia this week, hosted by Heather of Heather's Bytes,  has taken me to new territory - making bagels.  I have never made a bagel before, and I was a little wary of the boiling then baking process.  However, it wasn't as scary as I thought, and I was very happy with the end result.

I wanted sweet bagels, so I topped mine with cranberries, chopped walnuts and sugar:


I slathered a bagel in fig jam for the taste test:


Passed with flying colours!
