Method
 

  1. Gather all your ingredients.

  4. Divide the dough into four equal portions, roll into balls, and poke a hole in the center of each to shape into bagels.

  6. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Place the boiled bagels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Optionally, sprinkle with shredded cheese and sesame seeds.
