Passover Bagels

Servings 6 bagels

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup water
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup matzo meal
  • 1 tbsp sugar or to taste
  • 4 eggs

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat oven to 375˚F.
  • Bring oil, water, and salt to a boil.  Sprinkle in matzo meal and stir with a spoon, when mixture becomes sticky and pulls away from the sides of the pot, let it cool for 10-15 minutes.
  • Add sugar and eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.  I use a wooden spoon for this.
  • Dipping your hands in cold water first, form batter into a small balls and lay on a parchment lined cookie sheet.  Repeat with all the batter, dipping hands in water each time.  Using your finger make a large hole in the center of each bun.  I do this by circling my finger in the hole until I have a large enough hole (1-2 inches in diameter).
  • Bake for 15-20 min., until bagels are puffy, drop the temperature to 325 degrees and bake for another 30 mins., until golden brown.

Notes

Freezes well.  Slice before freezing.
