Directions

1. In a large bowl, mix 2 cups of flour, yeast, and salt. In a small saucepan, heat milk, butter and oil to 120°-130°. Add to dry ingredients; beat on medium speed 2 minutes. Add egg; beat on high 2 minutes. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a stiff dough.
2. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place dough in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
3. Preheat oven to 350°. Punch down dough. Divide and shape into 8 balls. Push thumb through center of each, stretching and shaping to form an even ring with a 2-in. hole. Place on a floured surface. Cover with a kitchen towel; let rest 15 minutes.
4. In a shallow bowl, whisk warm water and molasses. Place sesame seeds in a separate shallow bowl. Dip bagels in molasses mixture, then roll in seeds to coat.
5. Place 2 in. apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool.
