Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Begin by bringing oil and water to a boil in a saucepan. Once it reaches a rolling boil, remove it from the burner. |
| 2 | In a large mixing bowl, combine the matzo meal and cake flour. Mix well to ensure they are evenly distributed. |
| 3 | Gradually add the boiled water and oil mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously to prevent lumps from forming. |
| 4 | Once the mixture is smooth, add the sugar and mix until fully incorporated. |
| 5 | Crack the eggs into the mixture, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. This will help create a smooth and uniform dough. |
| 6 | Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a cookie sheet. |
| 7 | Using a large spoon, portion out the bagel mixture onto the greased cookie sheet. |
| 8 | With your fingers, create a hole in the center of each portion of dough, shaping them into classic bagel shapes. |
| 9 | Place the shaped bagels onto the greased cookie sheet, leaving some space between each one to allow for rising. |
| 10 | Bake the bagels in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. |
| 11 | Once baked, remove the bagels from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. |
| 12 | Enjoy your homemade Passover Bagels with your favorite spreads or toppings, or simply enjoy them plain for a delicious taste of tradition. |
