Montreal Style Bagels

I have been making my own bread/buns for the last 6 months or so and now that I have that down to an exact science I decided to branch out into other types of yeast-breads.  Josh LOVES montreal-style bagels so when I found this recipe I thought I would give it a try.  It is amazing! and they really taste exactly like Kettleman's bagels.  I halved the recipe and did all the mixing/kneading in my food processor for 3 min. beacuse I don't like hand-kneading and my processor cannot handle more then 3-4 cups of flour at a time.
Here is the recipe

MY KIDS REALLY LOVED THESE IN THE MORNING. ALSO, I USED THEM FOR SNACK LATER WITH FRUIT, OR CRUMBLED INTO YOGOURT.

1 1/2 cups butter
3 cups brown sugar
Cream together. Add:
5 eggs
Mix.

Add:
3 cups oats
2 cups flour
3 tablespoons baking powder
2 cups raw wheat germ
1 1/2 cup coconut
2 cups nuts
2 cups raisins

Grease two 9 x 13" baking pans, fill each with half of mixture. Bake at 350*F until golden brown.
Cut into bars and serve in a bowl of cold milk.
We make these the night before--they are more nutritious than granola (they contain eggs and not so much oil or sugar).

I loved making them & the kids loved eating them.
