Mix warm water and yeast in a bowl until foamy, about 5 minutes.

Combine flour, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl.

Add the yeast mixture and mix until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, about 10 minutes.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Punch down the dough and divide it into equal pieces.

Shape each piece into a ball and poke a hole in the center to form a bagel shape.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add malt.

Boil each bagel for about 1-2 minutes on each side, then remove and drain.

Place boiled bagels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with seeds or toppings of choice.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20-25 minutes.
