recipe: perfected egg and dairy-free fluffy bagels

I made a recipe for bagels a few years ago that I have since made dozens of times since. I have changed the recipe enough that I felt like it warranted a new post. They are so big and fluffy and my own family actually request that I make them more often than I make bread and buns. Try them (again) for yourself!

Perfected Egg and Dairy-Free Fluffy Bagels

(Makes 1 dozen)

Ingredients:

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 1/2 tbsp active dry yeast

2 cups warm water

1/3 cup canola or vegetable oil, plus more to grease

1/2 tsp salt

6 cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

1. Add the sugar, yeast, and warm water to a large bowl. Mix well, then cover with a tea towel for 15 minutes or until the yeast has bubbled.

2. Remove towel. Next add the oil, salt, and flour. Make sure to stir between each cup of flour. When the dough is no longer sticky, transfer to a floured surface. Knead for another 5 minutes until smoothed out. Form into a large ball and place in a new, large, oil-greased bowl. Cover with a tea towel. Put in oven with the light on for 1 hour to let rise.

3. After dough has risen, remove it from oven and punch it down. Then transfer again to a smooth surface. Separate into 12 balls. Poke your thumb through each ball and form into the shape of a bagel. Place onto a lightly greased cookie sheet. You may need two. Cover with a tea towel and let rise for 30 more minutes.

4. Meanwhile preheat oven to 375°F. Bake for 30 minutes or until a deep golden brown. Remove and brush with butter or margarine (regular or dairy-free). Let cool down before slicing into them. Enjoy!

Note: You may choose to add something to the top of the bagels, such as poppy seed. If so, do so right before placing them in the oven. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

recipe: gluten and dairy-free lasagna

Not only is this lasagna gluten-free and vegetarian, but I also made mine with dairy-free cheese! Talk about healthy! But you can certainly substitute some cheddar or mozzarella cheese for the dairy-free kind, as well as add a bit of hamburger meat (provided you have cooked it beforehand). This is something that I love to make in the summer months when we have a ton of fresh garden vegetables and only about 20 minutes to cook up a feast! It’s amazing!

Gluten-Free Vegetable Skillet Lasagna

Ingredients:

2 tbsp oil, any kind
1 large zucchini, sliced
1 cup spinach
1 cup mushrooms, diced
1/2 small yellow onion, diced
1 can diced tomatoes
2 cups grated cheese, any kind
Salt, to taste

Pepper, to taste

Steps:

1. Heat oil over medium in a skillet. Lay down a layer of zucchini. Spread the spinach on top, as well as the mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, and 1 cup of cheese. Then add the remaining zucchini and cheese. Add desired amount of salt and pepper.

2. Cover and continue to cook over medium heat for approximately 20 minutes, or until vegetables are cooked through. Then remove, slice, and serve!

recipe: egg- and dairy-free dinner rolls

To my vegan friends- these dinner rolls are a great alternative to buns that may contain eggs or dairy. They are fluffy, delicious, and look exactly like regular dinner rolls. Be sure to make them if you are searching for a vegan recipe, or if you are curious to see just how amazing they taste.

Egg- and Dairy-Free Dinner Rolls

Ingredients:

2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
2 tsp quick rise yeast
2 tbsp white sugar
½ tsp salt
½ cup unsweetened almond milk
¼ cup water
2 tbsp vegan butter

Steps:

1. Combine 1 cup of flour with yeast, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.

2. Put almond milk, water, and butter in a microwave-safe bowl, and heat up until warm. Remove and add wet ingredients to dry ones. Mix until well combined.

3. Slowly add the remaining amount of flour, beating mixture until dough is soft. (You might have to alter the amount, depending on consistency.) Place dough onto floured surface, and knead for a few minutes. Then put into a bowl and cover with a towel. Set aside for at least 10 minutes.

4. Remove dough from bowl and cut into 12 equal pieces. Shape into balls and place into round or square greased baking dish. Cover again with a towel and let rest for 45 minutes.

5. Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake for approximately 20 minutes, or until tops are golden brown. Take out of oven, and brush with vegan butter. Eat when your heart desires!
