Have you ever made homemade bagels? They're actually one of my favorite things to bake. They also just so happen to be the first recipe I ever posted. Check it out here! Making your own soft and chewy bagels are easier than you may think! Yes, these made-from-scratch rounds take some time but the reward is well worth the wait. My recipe only uses 5 ingredients and is allergy-friendly too!

I am not a vegan but this might be the solution for my little guy. He doesn't like the texture of meats and refuses to eat them. He'd eat these up super fast.
