BAGELS
Add ingredients to pan as per basic white bread recipe. You can substitute
up to half the white flour for wholemeal or brown if you wish. Select
BASIC DOUGH. When the process is complete proceed as follows:
Cut the dough into 15-20 equal pieces and roll into balls. Make a 1”
(2.5cm) hole in the middle to form a ring shape. Cover and allow to rise in
a warm place for 30-40 minutes.
Meanwhile bring 2 litres of water and 2 tbsp of sugar to a gentle boil.
When the bagels are ready, add to the water 2 at a time and boil
uncovered for 2 minutes turning once.
Place bagels on a lightly greased baking tray and bake in a pre-heated
oven for 30 minutes at 180°C (gas 5) – or until golden brown.
CROISSANTS
Ingredients Amount
Water 250ml
Strong white flour 460g
Sugar 2 tbsp
Butter 2 tbsp
Salt 1 tsp
Yeast 2 ½ tsp
You will also need 250g of butter or margarine, 1 egg, a little milk and
some cling film.
Method: Place the ingredients into the bread pan, select DOUGH mode,
press START. Meanwhile, place the butter between two pieces of cling
film. Using a rolling pin gently roll the butter until it becomes a 1” thick
rectangular slab. Remove to the fridge to chill.
When the dough cycle is complete remove the dough from the machine.
On lightly floured surface roll the dough into a rectangle 10” x 12”.
Remove the chilled butter slab from the fridge, remove the cling film and
lay the butter across the dough in such a way that the dough can be
folded over to form a sandwich with the butter in the middle. Roll the
dough again into a rectangular sheet 10” x 12”. Try to make sure the
butter between the dough spreads out evenly as you go.
