So this was my first attempt at reproducing the glorious
Panera Gingerbread bagel... It went decently enough... but I still don't have it down exactly...
I added crystallized ginger when I balled them up... they smelled wonderfully like gingerbread at this point! 10 more minutes to rise after shaping with a hole... why must this take so long! Hot out of the oven crusty on the outside, chewy in the middle... but the gingerbread kick... not totally there :( That's ok, another reason to try again! Once I have it right I'll let you guys know how I did it! Wish me luck :D
I have never tried to make bagels, but when you post the recipe for this one, I will have to! Love these!!
ReplyDelete...and after you perfect gingerbread (which I am totally excited for) you need to come up with a pumpkin bagel recipe!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteYum.
Homemade bagels are the best!! I bet they smelled good cooking! YUM!
ReplyDeleteCute!! I want to make a gingerbread bagel. I've always wanted to make a real one (like the ones in the store aren't...?)
ReplyDeleteI've never had gingerbread bagels. I do like bagels and I do like gingerbread though!
ReplyDeleteI haven't been in Panera in ages but gingerbread bagels sound awesome. Good luck, I'll be watching to see how they fare next time.

ReplyDeleteDid it ever work out like you hoped?
ReplyDeleteI still haven't figured it out... AND the worst part is I just found out Panera isn't having them this year!!! I'm boycotting them until they bring them back... so sad :(
