Egg Bagels

Egg bagels are less chewy than regular bagels and are not poached prior to baking. They have a lighter texture that is similar to challah. After they are fully proofed, egg bagels are often topped with poppy, sesame, or caraway seeds, or kosher salt before being placed in the oven. If you would like to top the bagels with onion, follow the directions in the note with the bagel recipe.
