I was too nervous to make a loaf of bread, so I tried out bagels! My starter is about 2 weeks old. I've been maintaining a small amount, bulked it recently anticipating a baking session. I'm beyond the moon happy with how these came out. The two that are green in the back are za'atar with extra sesame added.

The only thing I tweaked was substituting in 50g whole wheat flour. I was nervous to use more, but next time I will. When I was adding the toppings I also brushed them lightly with the water/honey mixture because they weren't as sticky as I anticipated after boiling them. I cooked them 22 minutes total.
Also as a side note:
This is strange, but if you're struggling finding a warm place in your home/apartment this winter for storing your starter/bulk rise purposes, this may work for you. I've been storing my starter in my TV console cabinet where my router is. It puts off just enough heat to keep it in the mid 70s in there!
Happy baking!
