The Yankee Doughnut

12/22/2015

 
​AKA the beloved bagel

Our family loves bagels. A toasted Everything Bagel with cream cheese is literal heaven.

Since we’ll be making a batch of these Arrowroot and White Rice bagels for Christmas morning (and since I’ve had a few people ask where they can find the recipe on this new site), I decided to share it! You can view the recipe below.
Arrowroot and White Rice Bagels

4 cups water, lukewarm
6 teaspoons yeast
9 tablespoons sugar
10 teaspoons xanthan gum
4 teaspoons salt
3 ½ cup arrowroot
1 ¾ cup tapioca flour
4 cups white rice flour

Directions:
1. Combine water, yeast and sugar and let rise for 10 minutes.
2. Combine rest of ingredients in large bowl.
3. Add in the yeast mixture and mix until combined (use hook attachment).
4. Shape into bagels and let rise for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 400°.
5. Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil. Poach bagels in water (a few at a time) for about 30-45 seconds. Remove and place on greased (or parchment-lined) baking sheet.
6. Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown on top. Eat!

My bagels came out pretty heavy and under baked. Some of the other recipes had more yeast is it worth increasing this and leaving to rise longer to get a lighter bagel. They also sank when I was boiling them

Hi Nicola,

I'm sorry to hear that! We've never had those experiences before, but they might be caused by not letting the dough rise enough or over-mixing. That said, my mom is going back through all of our old favorite recipes and making them for her YouTube channel (GlutenFree and Me). We'll let you know if we experience that phenomena!

I'll try again with a smaller batch and let them rise for longer!
