Day 12 of being unemployed, i have made 3 batches of baguettes, 2 different tries at dutch oven loaves (neither came out well at all),a batch of sub rolls, a chocolate cake (was my son's birthday last week), and today a batch of bagels.

I do not have malt powder, nor did the grocery store in town. But I will be ordering some. The crust (skin?) was a bit too crackly, and not soft like bakery bagels. But were still great.
