Ingredients
  

Bagel dough:

  • 2/3 cup water warm
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1 package active dry yeast or a scant Tablespoon yeast if using bulk
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/2 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour or additional all purpose flour
  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 1 1/2 cup all purpose flour plus up to a couple extra for kneading if needed
  • 1/3 cup dried cranberries optional

Other:

  • ¼ cup baking soda
  • Water for boiling
  • 1-2 Tablespoons rolled oats for topping optional

Instructions
 

  • Combine all ingredients except cranberries. Mix by hand or in mixer until well combined. Add dried cranberries.
  • Knead in mixer with dough hooks or by hand until dough “pushes back,” about 5 minutes. Add a little extra flour or water if needed to make a nice dough. Place in large bowl and cover with a wet dish towel. Let rise in a warm place until doubled–about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Punch dough down then shape into eight balls. Push thumb through centers to form a 1-in. hole. Stretch and shape dough to form an even ring. Cover and let rest for 15 -30 minutes.
  • Fill a deep skillet or Dutch oven 2-3 inches deep with water (you’ll need enough for the bagels to float). Bring to a boil, then add the baking soda.
  • When fizzing stops, drop bagels, a few at a time, into boiling water. Cook for 1 minute; flip over gently and cook 1 minute longer.
  • Remove with a slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with additional oatmeal if desired.
  • Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray or line with parchment paper. Place bagels 2 in. apart on prepared pan. Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until just beginning to brown.
