Hello! Is the flax/water meant to be an egg substitute? I think they benefit from having flax but am just curious if eggs are specifically left out. The recipe is obviously not vegan. As a first go we made these with Carbquik as that’s all we had and that worked okay but we’re going to try another go when our carbalose flour arrives

In reply to Joy Sewell. Hi Joy, Sorry, no bagel recipe but maybe try to adapt another of the Carbalose Flour Recipes- there are lots of them.

Have been on keto diet for 10 months. We were missing English muffins. Tried half of this recipe and love it!!
I used an electric frying pan, so I could control the temperature. Made 4. 3.5″ muffins. When they were brown , the insides were still doughy, so I turned the temperature down to 300, placed the cover back on and left them alone. Checking every 10 minutes, they were ready to fork. Total cook time was around 35 minutes.
If you have a bagel recipe, I’ll be in heaven…

Hi Lisa,
English Muffins can be a little tricky on a good day so this is what I would do. Add ¼ C more flour, turn down griddle 25 degrees and cook longer on each side. You could also cut the Guar Gum & Xanthan Gum in half. They are not an essential ingredient as they just make /give a better “mouth feel”.
Hope this helps.

I made the English muffins and they looked amazing. I measured the thickness of the cut out muffins to 1/2 in per instructions. Cooked them at 350. They got beautifully brown on each side, but the inside was doughy. What did I do wrong. I so want these to turn out.

Hi Susan,
No, you don’t need your rings. All you need to do it cut them with one ring (or large biscuit cutter) then just griddle them.
Have fun,
Deborah

I have 8 3 1/2” rings. Your instructions don’t mention using the rings for the actual griddle cooking. Would you suggest using them to contain the muffins or just cook them on the griddle without the rings? Thank you for this recipe. I’ve been looking for one and am excited to try this.

In reply to Lisa Price. Update: I made another batch and rolled them thicker so that I got the exact number of muffins specified in the recipe. I upped the temperature on the griddle to 375 and I covered them with a metal bowl throughout. They were done after 10 mins to a side and they came out perfect! We had eggs benedict for dinner! The leftover muffins were great in the toaster the next day!

Lisa,
Yes, sounds like they might be a bit too thin. No, do not try to finish them in the oven. They need to cook completely on your griddle top. If it taking a bit longer time as you indicate, try a higher heat and if that doesn’t work then try covering them for a while.
And Lisa, please, continue to let me know the new recipes you are trying.
