Bagels are suitable for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and can be eaten sweet or savoury depending on the topping you choose. Wholemeal flour contains more fibre than white flour and makes you feel fuller for longer.

5. Divide the dough into 6-8 pieces depending on how big you want the bagels to be.
6. Preheat the oven to 220°C.
7. Form 6-8 perfect dough balls, coat your finger in flour and press into the centre of each dough ball to form a ring. Then stretch the ring.
