# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • They're ready in under 40 minutes, which means breakfast can actually happen before you're already late for work.
  • Twelve grams of protein per bagel means you'll actually stay full instead of hunting for snacks two hours later.
  • The everything seasoning does all the flavor work, so you don't need cream cheese or complicated toppings to make them taste great.
02 -
  • Don't let the dough get warm or it becomes impossible to work with, so if you're having trouble shaping, pop it in the fridge for 5 minutes.
  • The egg wash is optional, but it changes the appearance so much that your friends will ask if they're homemade or store-bought.
03 -
  • Make these on Sunday and freeze them, then grab one and toast it each morning before you even realize you haven't eaten.
  • The magic trick for getting them to rise evenly is making sure each bagel is the same size before baking, which sounds obvious but makes a real difference in how they look.
