Matzo Bagels

This recipe is by Melinda Strauss. I find she always has some great Passover recommendations. I followed this recipe to a tee and it came out perfectly!

I got about 6 decently sized bagels out of this recipe but you could make mini bagels and get about 12 or you can double up the recipe. Either way, these bagels were delicious.

Grab your favourite schmear and a knife because these bagels are worth gossiping about!

Matzo Bagels

Yield: 6 bagels

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup water
½ cup oil
2 cups matzo meal
1 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
4 eggs 

DIRECTIONS:
1. Heat together boiling water and oil on the stove until the mixture is boiling.
2. Add matzo meal, sugar and salt and turn off the heat. Mix together until a ball is formed.
3. Let cool for a few minutes then add the eggs, one at a time, and stir until combined. Very important to add the eggs one at a time!
4. Let the mixture rest for 15 minutes.
5. To form the bagels, wet your hands with water and roll some of the dough in your hands and shape however you want. Place the dough on parchment paper and continue forming your bagels. You can shape the dough however you want and as big or small as you want. You can even make a whole in the middle of the bun so it looks just like a traditional bagel. Just keep rewetting your hands or the dough will stick.
6. Bake AT 350 degrees for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Enjoy!
