Method
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, water, yeast, salt, and sugar, and mix until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place until it doubles in size, roughly 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces and shape each piece into a bagel.
- Boil a large pot of water and gently place bagels in for about 1-2 minutes on each side.
- Remove bagels from water and place them on a baking sheet.
- In a bowl, mix cream cheese, garlic powder, chives, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Once bagels are slightly cooled, carefully slice them open and stuff with the garlic cream cheese mixture.
- Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
