Orange Cranberry Bagels

These were very good. I made them into 9 mini bagels and one small loaf of bread. I did not boil the bread but did the bagels. I substituted orange juice for 1/4 cup of water and eliminated the orange peel. I also did not put in the cloves and used cinnamon sugar instead. Very good!
