Montreal Bagels

Canadian bagels with a dense, slightly sweet crumb: dough with egg and malt, poached in honey water and coated with sesame seeds.

This home version keeps features of the Montreal style: dough with egg and malt syrup, a brief poach in honey water, and a seed coating. The sources describe a wood-fired oven as traditional; here, a home-oven temperature supported by the consulted recipes is given.
