Mix yeast with lukewarm water and coconut sugar in a small bowl and set aside.
Combine flour, hemp seeds, salt, plant milk and plant oil in a bowl, add yeast mix and knead for about 10 minutes by hand or with a machine at medium speed. You want a nice elastic dough. Just add water by the tablespoon if the dough is flaky or flour by the tablespoon if the dough sticks to the bowl.
Apply a little oil to a big bowl and your hands, place the dough in the bowl to let it rise for at least 1 hour. I usually cover it with a damp towel and put it in the warm, switched-off oven. The temperature should be around 30°C/ 85°F. Temperatures over 40° kill the yeast.
After at least an hour, the dough should have doubled. Punch it down to release the air. Knead again for a moment, then form 6 balls.
Poke a hole in the middle of each of them and make it bigger with your fingers to form bagels. Cover with the towel again and let rest for another 20 minutes.
In the meantime, preheat the oven to 200°C/ 392°F, prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper and bring a large saucepan with water to a boil.
Place the bagels one by one in the boiling water for about 20 seconds and then put them on the baking sheet. That works well with a strainer spoon.
Mix the 2 teaspoons of plant milk and maple syrup and brush the mixture onto the bagels, then sprinkle with hemp seeds. Bake for 22 minutes and serve warm.
