Hi Hannah,

I saw this recipe on instagram and really wanted to try it. When I made the dough, it stayed sticky for some reason and I couldn’t get it to a nice dough. I used the measurements as discriped, but it didn’t work. Do you have any idea why the dough woudn’t form?

Hi Zoe! You can add more flour in as needed. Dough will be slightly sticky, but it still should be workable. Feel free to add in flour as needed and dust your hands with flour as well when working it.

I made the bagelsbut the hole disappeared! However, I uses Eureka plain flour, Woolworths has the sprinkle and they worked and are delicious.

i’m glad it worked out! they do rise a ton during baking, so I recommend making the hole larger than you expect!

If I am doubling the recipe, should I also double the time to proof?

Hi there, no need. Same amount of time will suffice! However, if you did rest it longer that’s no prob. It won’t make or break it.
