Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this gluten free?
Unfortunately at this time we don’t have a gluten free blend that we can recommend.
Top 8 Allergen Free?
Besides, gluten, this recipe is Top 8 Allergen Free. We will update the post once we have a gluten free recommendation.
Can I prep these ahead?
Yes! Once made, they will last for up to 7 days in an air tight container.
Can I freeze these vegan bagels?
Absolutely! We know that you may not be able to eat all 8 bagels right away. Once completely cooled, you can freeze these bagels in an air tight freezer container or freezer safe bag. Our recommendation is to use within 3 months.
Thaw by leaving out overnight.
What are vegan toppings that I should add?
Cream cheese is a no brainer, but obviously it’s not normally vegan. Luckily, it’s getting easier for you to find vegan cream cheese; however, you could also make our cashew based vegan cream cheese or our nut free soy free vegan cream cheese.
Other options include:
- vegan cream cheese from above with fresh fruit
- peanut butter or other nut butter with agave or fresh fruit
- breakfast sandwich – vegan sausage or bacon with vegan eggs and vegan cheese
- hummus and your favorite toppings
The possibilities are literally endless.

Blueberry Vegan Bagels
Ingredients
For the bagels
- 3 ½ – 4 cups flour (we prefer bread, can use all-purpose or whole wheat – see post for details)
- 1 package instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ cups water
- ¼ cup vegan cane sugar
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
For the water bath
- 2 qt water
- ⅔ cup vegan sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking soda
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together 3 ½ cups flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
- Then, add in the water.
- Using a spatula, fold until mostly combined. Sprinkle a little more flour if needed to not be sticky and form a ball.
- Add blueberries and then fold dough over to combine, adding more flour if needed to form a solid ball (see video for visual)
- Cut the ball into 8 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball.
- Poke a hole through the center and stretch the hole a bit to make a center (see video for visual).
- Place shaped bagel on a parchment lined baking sheet and repeat with remaining dough.
- Cover with a damp towel and let rise for 60 minutes
- 10 minutes before timer goes off heat water in a large pot over medium high heat. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Once boiling add in sugar and blend together until sugar has dissolved.
- Add in baking soda.
- Drop 2-3 bagels in at a time for 1 minute. Flip and cook for 1 more minute.
- Remove bagels and place back on parchment lined baking sheet.
- Bake bagels for 20 minutes or until golden brown on top, flipping halfway through.
- Remove from oven and let cool before slicing and eating
Laura
Could I use frozen or frozen-then-thawed blueberries for this?
LarishaBernard
We wouldn’t recommend unless you thaw and dry off excess moisture
Lois
Hey there can I add apples and raisins instead of blueberries
Larisha Bernard
Yes
Alexis
These turned out DELICIOUS. I used all purpose flour and with a good amount of kneading they still came out with the perfect amount of chewiness. This was an awesome recipe
