Instructions

- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Carefully drop the bagels into the boiling water, cooking for about 1 minute on each side. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Beat the egg and brush it over the top of each bagel. Sprinkle with your choice of toppings if desired.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the bagels are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let the bagels cool on a wire rack before serving.
