Differences in flaxseed bagel compared to non-flaxseed bagel:
Flaxseed Bagels: 50% absorption for the flour + 50% absorption for the flax
(50 + (0.5*25) =62.5). Alternatively flaxseed can be substituted for flour and a straight 50% absorption used, resulting in a slightly higher level of flaxseed on a true basis
Shortening is omitted in flaxseed bagel
Non-flaxseed bagels were proofed for a shorter time than were flaxseed bagels
Flaxseed level of the dough based on a true or 100% basis was
