Delicious bagels with apples: what to add to the filling for a pronounced taste

Apple bagels are a versatile homemade pastry that can feed the whole family. And to make sure they turn out well, it's best to make the dough for the bagels yourself. Yeast dough is the most suitable for this purpose, as the bagels will grow well and be soft during the baking process. To make them have a more pronounced flavor, add a little cinnamon to the apple filling.
