Air Fryer Bagels

🧂 Ingredients

• ¾ cup warm water

  about 100-110F
• 2 ¼ teaspoons instant yeast

  1 packet
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• ¼ cup honey
• 1 large egg
• Toppings of your choice

  flake sea salt, sesame seeds, everything bagel seasoning.

Instructions

• 1 In a large bowl, whisk together the warm water, yeast, and brown sugar.
• 2 Next add the flour and salt and stir the dough together using a dough whisk or
  wooden spoon. You can also do this in a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook
  if you prefer.
• 3 Once a shaggy dough forms, transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and
  knead it for 2-3 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and only slightly sticky to
  the touch.
• 4 Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl and set it aside to rise for one
  hour.
• 5 After the dough has risen, divide it into 4 and shape the dough into a ball.
• 6 Poke a hole through the center of each ball to create the traditional bagel
  shape.
• 7 Bring a large pot of water (about 4 quarts) to a boil. Add the honey and stir to
  combine.
• 8 Boil the bagels, one at a time, for 30 seconds per side. Then remove the bagels
  and place them on a sheet of parchment paper that has been lined with nonstick
  spray.
• 9 Lightly spray your air fryer basket with nonstick spray. Add the bagels to the
  basket, making sure not to overcrowd them.
• 10 Beat the egg with a small splash of water (about 1 tablespoon) to create an egg
  wash. Brush the egg wash over the top of each bagel and sprinkle with your
  choice of toppings.
• 11 Cook at 375F for 8-10 minutes, or until the bagels are golden brown.
• 12 Serve warm. Store any leftover bagels in an airtight container at room
  temperature for up to two days.
