Abstract: Bagel cooking apparatus which has a casing and a bagel boiling section provided by a water-containing component removably supported from the casing. An oven section in which boiled bagels are baked is located beneath the bagel boiling section. Independently controllable heaters may be provided to boil the water and to bake the bagels or a single heater may be employed for both of those purposes. In the latter case, the removable, water-containing component is constructed so that it can be associated with the casing in two different orientations in which that component respectively directs heat primarily to the bagel boiling section of the apparatus and to its oven section.

Abstract: An appliance which includes an inner compartment with one zone in which uncooked bagels can be boiled and a second zone for subsequently baking the boiled bagels. The same appliance can also be used to make bagel doughs and to both make and bake other yeast doughs.

Abstract: An appliance which includes a casing divided into one zone in which uncooked bagels can be boiled and a second zone for subsequently baking the boiled bagels. The same appliance can also be used to make bagel doughs and other yeast doughs. In the dough making mode, a bagel rack and its support are removed from the casing and replaced with a dough container and a dough mixing and kneading blade.

Abstract: Bagel cooking apparatus which includes a casing divided into a lower zone in which uncooked bagels can be boiled and an upper, oven zone for subsequently baking the boiled bagels. A cam mechanism with an externally accessible operator is provided to move a bagel-supporting structure housed in the casing between the lower, boiler zone and the upper, oven zone. A control system allows a user to independently control the operation of the bagel cooker during the boiling and baking steps.
