Cinnamon Raisin Bagels Bread Machine Recipes

BREAD MACHINE BAGELS

Steps:

• Place water, salt, sugar, flour and yeast in the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select Dough setting.
• When cycle is complete, let dough rest on a lightly floured surface. Meanwhile, in a large pot bring 3 quarts of water to a boil. Stir in 3 tablespoons of sugar.
• Cut dough into 9 equal pieces, and roll each piece into a small ball. Flatten balls. Poke a hole in the middle of each with your thumb. Twirl the dough on your finger or thumb to enlarge the hole, and to even out the dough around the hole. Cover bagels with a clean cloth, and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Sprinkle an ungreased baking sheet with cornmeal. Carefully transfer bagels to boiling water. Boil for 1 minute, turning half way through. Drain briefly on clean towel. Arrange boiled bagels on baking sheet. Glaze tops with egg white, and sprinkle with your choice of toppings.
• Bake in a preheated 375 degree F (190 degrees C) oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until well browned.

CINNAMON RAISIN BAGELS (BREAD MACHINE)

Steps:

• Soak the raisins in warm water for 10 minutes.
• Drain and pat dry.
• Toss with cinnamon and sugar, then place in machine with other ingredients.
• Remove dough from the machine after the first knead- approximately 20- 30 minutes.
• Place dough on floured surface.
• Divide into 8 parts.
• Form balls, gently press thumb through center of ball and slowly stretch into bagel shape.
• While bagels rise, bring 3 quarts water and 1 TBS sugar to a rapid boil in a large sauce pan.
• Drop test dough (see first success hint).
• Using slotted spoon, drop 2-3 bagels into rapidly boiling water.
• Boil on each side for 1 1/2 minutes.
• Remove and cool on rack 1 minute, brush with egg wash.
• Bake at 400°F on a baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal, until golden brown- approximately 15 minutes.
• Bagel Success Hints: When forming bagels, set aside two 1/4" balls of dough.
• When bagels have doubled in size, drop the test dough into boiling water.
• Dough should pop to the top right away.
• When this happens, it is time to boil the bagels.
• A quick spray of non-stick vegetable coating on the top of the bagel may be substituted for the egg wash.
• To make bagel chips, slice leftover bagels horizontally into thin slices.
• Brush with butter or margarine on one side.
• Lay (butter side up) on ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 325°F for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.

CINNAMON RAISIN BREAD FOR THE BREAD MACHINE

Steps:

• Add all the ingredients in order given except the raisins.
• Add raisins in on the "add in" beep.
• Bake on "sweet bread" setting.

CINNAMON RAISIN BAGELS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the honey, yeast, and 1 1/4 cup warm water. Stir to dissolve and let sit for 5 minutes or until the surface is covered with foam.
• In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of the flour and the salt. Stir to combine. Add the frothy yeast water and stir well until everything is evenly mixed. Continue adding flour a 1/2 cup at a time until it is too hard to stir by hand (this will probably bring you to a total of 3 cups).
• Turn the dough out on to a well-floured surface. Continue adding flour a little bit at a time until you have reached a total of 3 1/2 - 4 cups, depending on the humidity. Stop adding flour when it becomes fairly stiff but still pliable enough to knead. Knead for 8 minutes.
• After kneading, flatted the dough slightly. Add the cinnamon and raisins to the center. Fold the dough over and knead a few more times until the raisins are distributed through the dough and the cinnamon has given the dough a swirly appearance.
• Form the dough into a ball, cover loosely, and let it rise until double (about 45 minutes). Punch the dough down, form it into a log, and cut it into 10 pieces. Form each piece into a ball by pulling the dough back and under itself. Pinch it in the center to make a hole and carefully stretch the hole until it is a couple of inches across (make this hole about 3x larger than you think it should be - the bagels will puff!). Place the formed bagels on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper and cornmeal or cooking spray. Let rise until doubled (about 45 minutes).
• Preheat your broiler near the end of the rise time. Put a large of water on to boil. Place the tray of bagels under the broiler for 1 minute. Pull the bagels out, carefully turn them over, and place them back in to broil on the second side. You don't want to brown the bagels, just make them slightly dull on the surface.
• Turn the oven to 375°F Drop the bagels into the boiling water a few at a time. Boil the bagels for one minute, flip them over, and boil for another minute on the opposite side. Remove from the water and allow to drain on a wire cooling rack for about 5 minutes.
• If you want to add toppings, do it now - brush the surface with a lightly beaten egg and then add topping.
• Place bagels on a baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes until the surface is golden brown.

CINNAMON SWIRL BREAD FOR THE BREAD MACHINE

Steps:

• Place milk, eggs, 1/4 cup butter, bread flour, sugar, salt, and yeast into a bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer, select the dough setting, and start the machine. When dough cycle is complete, transfer dough to a floured work surface and punch down. Let dough rest for 10 minutes.
• Mix walnuts, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl.
• Divide dough in half and roll each half into a rectangle about 9x14 inches. Spread 1 tablespoon softened butter over the top of each dough rectangle and evenly sprinkle dough with half the walnut mixture. Roll dough rectangles, starting from the short ends, and pinch seams closed.
• Grease 2 9x5-inch loaf pans. Fit the rolled loaves into the loaf pans with seam sides down. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake loaves in the preheated oven until lightly golden brown and bread sounds hollow when tapped, about 30 minutes. If loaves brown too quickly, lightly cover with aluminum foil for the last 10 minutes of baking. Let bread cool for 10 minutes before removing to finish cooling on wire racks. Sprinkle tops of each loaf with 1 teaspoon confectioners' sugar.
