        <content>I live in a developing country, and the hottest my oven will get is 375 F.  I have made bagels in the past when I lived in the US, but the recipe I used calls for a 500 F oven.  Does anyone know if my bagels would turn out okay if I use the same recipe but bake them longer at a lower temperature?  Would the texture just not be the same, and if so, in what way?  Thanks!</content>

      <content>I have always baked my bagels at 375 F for 20 to 25 minutes on a pre-heatd pizza stone and they turn out great.

      <content>I bake them at 450 F 15-20 minutes.  I think you could reasonably make them at 375 F for a longer baking time.</content>
