Instructions
- 1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- 2 Place flour, water, 2 tablespoons sugar, yeast, and salt into a bread machine in the order listed, or follow the order recommended by the manufacturer if different. Run 'Dough' cycle. Remove dough from the machine after the cycle is done, about 90 minutes.
- 3 Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface: let rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
- 4 Cut dough into nine equal pieces. Roll each piece into a small ball and flatten into a circle. Poke a hole in the middle of each circle with your thumb. Place back onto the floured surface. Cover dough with a cloth and let rest for 10 minutes.
- 5 Meanwhile, bring 3 quarts water to a boil in a large pot. Sprinkle cornmeal onto an ungreased baking sheet.
- 6 Stir 3 tablespoons sugar into boiling water. Transfer two bagels at a time to the boiling water, working in batches, turning halfway through, about 1 minute. Drain briefly on a clean towel. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with egg white: sprinkle with poppy seeds.
- 7 Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
