Instructions

In a stand mixer bowl, combine flour, salt, sugar, and yeast. Add barley malt syrup and water; mix on medium-low speed for 12-15 minutes until a stiff dough forms.
Perform the windowpane test to check the dough's elasticity; continue mixing if necessary.
Shape the dough into a ball, place it in a bowl, cover, and chill for 12-24 hours.
Prepare two baking sheets with parchment paper and dust lightly with flour. Fill a shallow bowl with flour.
Cut the dough into 12 equal portions (about 115 grams each) using a bench scraper.
Shape each portion into a ball, sealing the bottom, and lightly dust with flour before placing on baking sheets.
Cover with plastic wrap and proof in a warm area for 1.5 hours, then refrigerate for 1 hour.
Poke a hole in the center of each ball to form a three-inch opening.
Boil water in a large pot, add barley malt syrup, and preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C).
Boil bagels in batches for 30-45 seconds on each side, then return to baking sheets and add seasoning.
Bake bagels for 14-18 minutes until golden brown, rotating the pans once, then transfer to wire racks to cool.

Notes

Chilling the dough overnight enhances the flavor and texture of the bagels.
For best results, ensure that the dough is well-proofed before boiling.
Feel free to customize your bagels with different toppings or spreads.
