Bagels!

Hello everyone!

I have recently bought a few cook books for baking (gluten free) and I have seen a couple different recipes for bagels in two of them, ( "Cook fast and healthy" by Bette Hangman and "You won't Believe it's Gluten Free" by Roben Ryberg) problem is I'm not sure which to use... I have been craving bagels for at least 2 weeks now but I am hesitant to make the ones I found in my recipe books. I have looked at a few different recipes online but I don't know which ones would taste similar to what I want without that weird after taste you sometimes get. I am looking for a dense chewy bagel. Soft and chewy on the inside. Thick that tears apart, I know it's a lot to ask since the gluten makes it chewy and doughy but oh how I miss them. After a year of being gluten free I am relatively new to this gluten free baking. After a year of rice noodles and meat I am finally venturing out to baked goods! YAY

I was wondering if any of you Cooking Mama's have a good chewy bagel recipe that doesn't have 1 million different flours in it. If not any tasted and true bagel recipe will more then please me.

My tummy thanks you in advance! :lol:

I have both of those books, and haven't tried any of the bagel recipes. I'm a little afraid of them. LOL

I will tell you though, that if you want some 'instant gratification' and can find them in a store near you, Glutino makes some dang good bagels. :) They'll be in your freezer section. I nuke 'em in the mircowave for about 40 seconds (defrost) then slice and toast. Mmmmmmm. I really missed bagels too.......until I found these.

Oh, and they come in a couple of different flavors!

ahh alas I suppose I will give them a try, I always find that what I bake gluten free usually tastes far better then store bought gluten free products. Maybe bagels are the exception to the rule :)

They're yummy, but they don't taste like bagels to me. They're just like the rolls they make but with holes in them. Very good for egg sandwichs, and a better value than the rolls packages.

Yah, I'm looking for the real deal...not an "attempt at a bagel" in prepackaged form. But I suppose I will make the recipes I have and see what happens.... I have gotten a lot of great recipes from here and I thought maybe someone had a bagel one laying around :)

The only time I made bagels, I used the Pamela's amazing wheat free bread mix bagel recipe. They were pretty good. From what I've read, the key is to boil them before the baking...

My non celiac wife and I swear by Joan's Bagels. I swear they taste like real bagels. One of these days i am gonna try the Pamela's bagel recipe because i love her cakes and breads and pancakes.

Well, the thing about Against the Grain is that they're not bad. Really, they're quite delicious. They're just not bagels. They're soft rolls with holes.

The Glutino bagels are pretty darned good though, dense and chewy and bagel-riffic.

Hi All,

here's my recipe for gluten-free Bagels, they may not be the prettiest thing to look at but,

believe me they have the right taste and texture.

.

Crunchy on the outside and soft and doughy inside.

I also like the Pamela's bread mix. The only thing I do different than the recipe is boil them longer than it calls for.

Sometimes I add cinnamon and raisins. Sometimes dried cranberries and walnuts. Yum!

I used this recipe a few days ago and was quite happy with the results. I used xanthan gum, not the other binders suggested. My only complaint with the recipe is that it doesn't make very much dough at all...I got a mere seven bagels from it, and they were quite small. I'd suggest doubling the recipe if you want any amount of results to show for yourself that have any size to them. Open Original Shared Link

      Wow KK, thank you so much for all your attached info. I had a very quick scan but will read more in depth later.  The one concerning corticosteroid use is very interesting. That would relate to secondary adrenal insufficiency I think , ie AI caused by steroids such as taken long term for eg asthma. I have primary autoimmune AI, my adrenals are atrophied, no chance if recovery there. But I am in touch with some secondaries, so something to bear in mind. .  Niacin B3 Very interesting too. Must have a good read about that.  Im sure lots of questions will arise as I progress with dermatitis herpetiformis. In the mean time, thanks for your help.

      Thank you all for your advice and the dermatitis herpetiformis article. The latter made me realise I had stopped taking my antihistamine, which I will restart today. The Dapsone has cleared the rash entirely but I still get quite a bit itching, absolutely nothing to see though. I know its notoriously hard to clear and its still relatively early days for me.  The iodine issue is very interesting. I do eat quite a bit of salt because I have Addison's disease and sodium retention is an issue. I also have autoimmune hypothyroidism, not sure how a low iodine diet would play into that? Because of my Addison's I am totally steroid dependent, I take steroids 4 x daily and cannot mount any defence against inflammation. I need to increase my meds for that. Now that I know what is wrong I can do just that if Im having a bad day. Life is very sweet, just so damn complicated sometimes! Hey ho, onwards. Thank you again for your advice.

      So, essentially all of the nutrition in the food we eat is absorbed through the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestinal track that is damaged by celiac disease. This villous lining is composed of billions of finger-like projections that create a huge amount of surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the celiac person, when gluten is consumed, it triggers an autoimmune reaction in this area which, of course, generates inflammation. The antibodies connected with this inflammation is what the celiac blood tests are designed to detect but this inflammation, over time, wears down the finger-like projections of the villous lining. Of course, when this proceeds for an extended period of time, greatly reduces the absorption efficiency of the villous lining and often results in many and various nutrient deficiency-related health issues. Classic examples would be osteoporosis and iron deficiency. But there are many more. Low D3 levels is a well-known celiac-caused nutritional deficiency. So is low B12. All the B vitamins in fact. Magnesium, zinc, etc.  Celiac disease can also cause liver inflammation. You mention elevated ALP levels. Elevated liver enzymes over a period of 13 years was what led to my celiac diagnosis. Within three months of going gluten free my liver enzymes normalized. I had elevated AST and ALT. The development of sensitivities to other food proteins is very common in the celiac population. Most common cross reactive foods are dairy and oats but eggs, soy and corn are also relatively common offenders. Lactose intolerance is also common in the celiac population because of damage to the SB lining.  Eggs when they are scrambled or fried give me a gut ache. But when I poach them, they do not. The steam and heat of poaching causes a hydrolysis process that alters the protein in the egg. They don't bother me in baked goods either so I assume the same process is at work. I bought a plastic poacher on Amazon to make poaching very easy. All this to say that many of the issues you describe could be caused by celiac disease.

      thank you so much for your detailed and extremely helpful reply!! I can say with absolute certainty that the less gluten containing products I've eaten over the past several years, the better I've felt.   I wasn't avoiding gluten, I was avoiding refined grains (and most processed foods) as well as anything that made me feel bad when I ate it. It's the same reason I gave up dairy and eggs- they make me feel ill.  I do have a bit of a sugar addiction lol so a lot of times I wasn't sure if it was the refined grains that I was eating - or the sugar. So from time to time I might have a cookie or something but I've learned how to make wonderful cookies and golden brownies with BEANS!! and no refined sugar - I use date paste instead. Pizza made me so ill- but I thought it was probably the cheese. I gave up pizza and haven't missed it. the one time I tried a slice I felt so bad I knew I'd never touch it again. I stopped eating wheat pasta at least 3 yrs ago- just didn't feel well after eating it. I tried chick pea pasta and a few others and discovered I like the brown rice pasta. I still don't eat a lot of pasta but it's nice for a change when I want something easy. TBH over the years I've wondered sometimes if I might be gluten intolerant but really believed it was not possible for me to have celiac disease. NOW I need to know for sure- because I'm in the middle of a long process of trying to find out why I have a high parathyroid level (NOT the thyroid- but rather the 4 glands that control the calcium balance in your body) I have had a hard time getting my vit D level up, my serum calcium has run on the low side of normal for many years... and now I am losing calcium from my bones and excreting it in my urine (some sort of renal calcium leak) Also have a high ALP since 2014. And now rapidly worsening bone density.  I still do not have a firm diagnosis. Could be secondary HPT (but secondary to what? we need to know) It could be early primary HPT. I am spilling calcium in my urine but is that caused by the high parathyroid hormone or is it the reason my PTH is high>? there are multiple feedback loops for this condition.    so I will keep eating the bread and some wheat germ that does not seem to bother me too much (it hasn't got enough gluten to use just wheat germ)    but I'm curious- if you don't have a strong reaction to a product- like me and wheat germ- does that mean it's ok to eat or is it still causing harm even if you don't have any obvious symptoms? I guess what you are saying about silent celiac makes it likely that you can have no symptoms and still have the harm... but geez! you'd think they'd come up with a way to test for this that didn't require you to consume something that makes you sick! I worry about the complications I've been reading about- different kinds of cancers etc. also wondering- are there degrees of celiac disease?  is there any correlation between symptoms and the amnt of damage to your intestines? I also need a firm diagnosis because I have an identical twin sister ... so if I have celiac, she has it too- or at least the genetic make up for having it. I did have a VERY major stress to my body in 2014-2016 time frame .. lost 50lbs in a short period of time and had severe symptoms from acute protracted withdrawal off an SSRI drug (that I'd been given an unethically high dose of, by a dr who has since lost his license)  Going off the drug was a good thing and in many ways my health improved dramatically- just losing 50lbs was helpful but I also went  off almost a dozen different medications, totally changed my diet and have been doing pretty well except for the past 3-4 yrs when the symptoms related to the parathyroid issue cropped up. It is likely that I had low vit D for some time and that caused me a lot of symptoms. The endo now tells me that low vit D can be caused by celiac disease so I need to know for sure! thank you for all that great and useful information!!!
