hi Fresh Loafers 

I have started an at home bagel business and I have reach the point that I think my bagels are pretty great. All but the cinnamon raisin. They’re a disaster. I hate making them and I cannot figure out why they fail most of the time. 
the picture below is of the recipe I follow for my regular bagels. The process I use is a knead then rest for five minutes then shape then proof outside the fridge for between 30 to 90 minutes then slow proof in the fridge over night.
