Description
Multigrain Seeded Bagels are a twist on the classic bagel. While the traditional bagel is typically made from white flour, these bagels incorporate a mix of bread flour, whole wheat flour, and a multigrain cereal or rolled oats, making them more hearty and nutritious. What sets them apart is the addition of seeds like sesame, flax, sunflower, poppy, and pumpkin. These seeds not only add texture but also provide a boost of healthy fats, protein, and essential minerals.
