Ingredients:

1 ¼ cups water
1 tsp. salt

Mix in the pink and blue food coloring into the dough and knead until the dough is muddled streaks of purple and pink.
Place the dough into a bowl, cover it with cling film and let it double in size in a warm place.
Take the dough out and divide it into equal pieces. With a floured finger, poke a hole into the center of each piece and stretch it out to give it the shape of a bagel.
Cover each of the bagels and let the sit for another 10 minutes.
Place a pan with 2 inches of water over medium/high heat. Add salt into the water, bring it to a boil and then turn down the heat so that it stays at a simmer.
Preheat your oven to 375F.
Drop 2 to 3 bagels into the simmering water and cook for a minute, flipping over once after 30 seconds. Place the bagels on a cooling rack while you wait for the rest to cook.
Place each bagel on a baking tray and bake for 15-20 minutes.
Serve the galaxy bagels with cream cheese and enjoy.
