Easy Vegan Pumpkin Spice Bagels

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Position rack in upper third of oven. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Place self-rising flour in a stand mixer (see Tip) fitted with the dough hook. Add pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice and mix at low speed until a smooth dough forms, 3 to 4 minutes. Add a few tablespoons water if the dough seems dry or a few tablespoons flour if it is sticky.

Shape the dough into a disk, then divide into 4 equal pieces. Using your hands, roll each piece into a rope, 9 to 10 inches long and 3/4 inch wide. Shape each rope into a bagel and place on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the bagels with oil and sprinkle with additional pumpkin pie spice, if desired.

Bake in the upper third of the oven until nicely browned on the bottom and lightly browned on top, about 25 minutes. Let cool completely before serving.
