- gently fold in the berries
- knead until you have a soft and elastic dough {either by hand or using the dough hook of a stand mixer} don’t worry – the dough will look quite purple
- cover the dough and let rise until doubled {about 1 – 1/2 hours}
- divide the dough into 8 balls
- press into the center of each ball forming a hole, and stretch to form the bagel shape
