Good aren't they? I didn't spray mine at all but they still were shiny and looked a treat anyway. When I make them next I will add some cranberries and a bit more sugar to half the mix having reduced it also Cookie. Good fun wasn't it?

ROFL.               Is that  what they should look like Gretchen? I have never even seen true bagels.

Poor dog.

Yup you did good. You can buy frozen Sara Lee bagels at the supermarkets .  Coles have fresh often. If you want to have a real " you beaut" bagel then you have to go to the Carnegie Deli in New York City. Now that is an experience.

How about we organise Mr and Mrs T to take us on a gastronomic tour of the world in search of say , real kedgeree, real bagles , real eels blood sausage etc. Maybe it would be a gourmand tour rather than a gourmet tour. :D :D :D

I found the following website with lots of suggested toppings and fillings for bagels - like the idea of the Blueberry one.

Good work cookie1 - did you glaze them before putting in the oven with some egg?  Helps make them shinier.

I only sprayed them with oil. Will try egg next time. I like the idea of blueberry ones although DD wants to try the smoked salmon and cream cheese.
