optional: sesame seeds, dried minced onion, poppy seeds, sea salt, sunflower seeds, cinnamon and sugar,
1) Punch dough down after it has risen and doubled in size.
2) Pull off pieces that are about the size of a lemon, and roll it into a ball (you can do bigger or smaller bagels).
3) Push a hole through the middle of the dough ball with your thumb and middle finger. Place shaped dough on parchment paper or foil.
4) Repeat steps 2 and 3 until all the dough has been shaped into bagels.
5) Bring 8 cups of water to a boil. Drop 4 "bagels" into the water at a time for 1 minute. When they float to the top of the water, which will happen fairly quickly, flip the bagel.
6) Remove each bagel with a slotted spoon, and place on a lined cookie sheet 2 inches apart.
7) At this point, while the bagels are still a little bit wet, sprinkle any of the optional seeds/toppings on each bagel.
8) Bake at 475 degrees for 15 minutes. Remove immediately and cool.
