Chocolate Multi Grain Protein Bagels - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 1/4 cups warm water
3 cups whole wheat flour
2 cups oat flour or 2 cups ground oats
1/2 cup ground flax seeds
6 scoops chocolate protein powder
4 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons salt
2 1/2 teaspoons yeast
2 tablespoons gluten flour (optional)

Preparation

Start a large pot of water to almost boiling.
Combine all ingredients and mix in mixer or knead for 8 minutes. Let dough raise until about double (about 15 to 20 minutes).
Roll out dough into a rope and cut into 12 even pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and poke your finger through it. Twirl on your finger until the hole is about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Place on cookie sheet and let rest about 5 to 8 minutes.
Preheat oven to 385\u00b0F and turn water up to boil.
When water is boiling drop about 4 bagels 1 at a time into the water for about 1 1/2 minutes turning each one about half way through. Place back on cookie sheet.
When all bagels have been boiled, place them in the oven for about 25 to 30 minutes.
Let them cool completely before putting them in storage bags.
