Coffee Walnut Bagels
Overview
Many housewives choose to prepare bread for their families for breakfast. The reason is that there are many varieties of bread, many flavors, and many varieties to choose from. In addition to all kinds of colorful bread and toast, my most popular breakfast is bagels. Bagel is made differently from other breads and has a different texture. It is different from other soft breads and is chewy. It can be oiled and sugared, or oil-free and sugar-free. It can also be made salty, low-calorie and healthy. If it is cut open, it can also be made into a sandwich. Ingredients used: 300 grams of high-gluten flour for the dough, 150 grams of water, 4 grams of salt, 4 grams of yeast, 3 grams of walnuts, 30 grams of coffee powder, 6 grams of hot water, 15 grams of water for cooking bagels: 1000 ml of water, 50 grams of sugar

Ingredients
Steps
-
First, melt the coffee powder with hot water in advance and bring it to a warm state. The coffee powder I use is sugar-free. Not that kind of three-in-one!
-
Place all the dough parts except the walnuts in a basin, then add warm coffee water, place it on a chef's machine or bread machine, and knead it into a smooth dough. It's okay if you knead it by hand. The dough is neither hard nor soft and is easy to knead by hand.
-
Then add chopped walnuts. I used raw walnuts, which taste even better after being baked with the dough.
-
The kneaded dough does not need to rise, just divide it into five parts, then roll into balls and rest for 10 minutes.
-
Take a small piece of dough with the smooth side facing up, flatten it, then roll it out from the middle up and down, turn it over and flip it over again.
-
Press the upper third down to tighten, and the lower third up to tighten. Then fold the dough in half and press to seal.
-
Roll the dough to about 40 cm and flatten it with a rolling pin on the right side.
-
Circle the dough and put the other end on the flattened dough, put in more, wrap it with the flattened part of dough and pinch it tightly.
-
Place the shaped dough on a baking sheet lined with greaseproof paper and place in a warm place to ferment for about 30 minutes. During the fermentation process, put 1000 ml of water and 50 grams of sugar in a pot and bring to a slight boil, then turn to low heat and preheat the oven.
-
Put the dough into the water. The fermented dough should float immediately. Tear off the oil paper at the bottom.
-
Cook each side for 30 seconds. Drain the water and place on a baking sheet. Bake in the oven at 200 degrees, middle rack, for about 20 minutes. Take it out and let it cool.
-
The baked bagel can be eaten directly, spread with jam, or sandwiched with eggs and fruits.
