The BAGEL function crisps the insides of
your cut bagel while only lightly toasting the
outside. This function is also ideal for toasting
thick sliced speciality breads which require one
side to be toasted more than the other.
NOTE
If you like your bagel halves equally crisp on
both the top and bottom, we recommend using
the TOAST function to toast your cut bagel.
1. Insert the wire rack into the middle rack
height position. The wire rack should be
positioned with the spokes facing upwards.
2. Slice each bagel into two equal halves
3. If toasting 1-2 bagel halves, center the
halves on the wire rack. If toasting 3-4
halves, evenly space them with 1-2 halves at
the front of the wire rack and 1-2 halves at
the back of the rack.
NOTE
The upside of the bagel must always face
upwards towards the top heating elements.
This allows the topside to be crisp while the
crust is only lightly toasted.
For bagels, change the rack to the middle
rack height position, cut the bagel in half,
lengthways. The upside (cutside) of the
bagel must always face upwards towards
the top heating elements - so the topside
(cutside) becomes crisp while the crust is only
lightly toasted.
