     1/4  c             Water -- lukewarm
   1      tb            Water -- lukewarm
   2      c             White bread flour
   4      tb            Brown sugar
     3/4  ts            Salt
     1/3  c             Canned pumpkin
   1      ts            Cinnamon
     1/4  tb            Ground cloves
   1      ts            Nutmeg

   2 1/4  ts            Active dry yeast

Insert ingredients in bread machine according to manufacturer's
instructions. Remove the dough from the machine after the first
knead--approximately 20 to 30 minutes. 

Place dough on a floured surface. Divide into 5 parts. Form balls,
gently press thumb through center of ball and slowly stretch into
bagel shape.

While bagels rise, bring 3 qt of water and 1 tb of sugar to a rapid
boil in a large saucepan. Drop test dough (see hints below).

Using a slotted spoon, drop 2 to 3 bagels into rapidly boiling water.
Boil on each side for 30 seconds. Remove and cool on rack 1 minute,
brush with egg and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds, if desired.

Bake at 400°F on a baking sheet sprinkled with corn meal, until
golden--approximately 15 minutes.

Bagel Success Hints:

When forming the bagels, set aside two 1/4" balls of dough. When the
bagels have doubled in size, drop the test dough into boiling water.
The dough should pop to the top right away. When this happens, it is
time to boil the bagels.

A quick spray of non-stick vegetable coating on the top of the bagel
may be substituted for the egg wash.

To make bagel sticks, cut bagel before rising and lay out in a
straight line. Roll sticks in a combination of sesame and poppy seeds
with a pinch of garlic powder. Let sticks rise, boil, and bake as
described in the above directions.

To make bagel chips, slice leftover bagels horizontally into thin
slices. Brush with butter on one side. Lay (butter side up) on an
ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 325°F for 12 to 15 minutes until
golden brown and crisp.
