Step 2

Measure out pizza dough in 2.5-3 ounce balls. Roll balls into a smooth ball and place on a baking sheet in a warm area to rise for 10-15 minutes.

Step 3

After balls have rested, shape each ball into a bagel by pushing fingers through the center of the ball and carefully working the opening larger so you have a nice ring. Return shaped bagels to the baking sheet to rest for another 15 minutes.

Step 4

Preheat oven to 400˚ F, bring a large pot of water to boil, and mix together spice mix.

Step 5

When ready to boil, add salt and baking soda to boiling water. Boil bagels for 1 minute per side. After boiling, remove and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle boiled bagels liberally with everything seasoning.

Step 6

Bake bagels at 400˚ F. for 18-20 minutes, rotating once halfway through. Finished bagels should be golden brown and cooked through.

Step 7

Serve bagels while warm with cream cheese or butter.

Step 9

Leftover bagels will deflate a bit, but are still good toasted with toppings.
