Organic Rainbow Bagel with Cream Cheese Ingredients:
- For the Bagels: 4 cups organic bread flour
- 1 ½ cups warm water
- 2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast
- 2 tbsp organic sugar
- 1 tbsp salt
- Food coloring (various colors)
- For the Cream Cheese: 1 cup organic cream cheese

How to make Organic Rainbow Bagel with Cream Cheese:
Make the Dough: In a large bowl, mix warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy. Add flour and salt, and knead until smooth.
Color the Dough: Divide the dough into equal parts and add different food coloring to each part. Knead until the color is evenly distributed.
Shape the Bagels: Roll each colored dough into ropes, twist them together, and form into bagel shapes.
Boil and Bake: Boil the bagels for 1 minute on each side, then bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
Prepare the Cream Cheese: Mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Fold in rainbow sprinkles if desired.
Serve: Spread the cream cheese on the cooled bagels
Recipe Notes :
Ensure the water is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast properly.
Boiling the bagels before baking gives them their characteristic chewy texture.
You can customize the cream cheese with different flavors or add-ins like fruit purees or herbs.
