Breadstick Bones Recipe

Breadstick Bones are twisted breadsticks shaped to resemble bones, made from a yeast dough enriched with canola oil and rolled into ropes with slits and spirals. After rising, they bake to a golden brown with a tender crumb. Brushed with melted butter and topped with garlic salt and Parmesan, they pair well with marinara sauce for dipping.

Description

This recipe develops a soft yeast dough using warm water, active dry yeast, sugar, salt, oil, and flour. After proofing, the dough is divided and rolled into ropes shaped with distinctive slits and spiral twists to mimic bone shapes. A second rise helps create a light texture.

The breadsticks bake at a high temperature for a short time to develop a golden crust while maintaining a soft interior. After baking, a garlic butter and Parmesan cheese topping adds savory richness and aroma. These breadsticks have a pleasant chew with crispy edges.

They are suited for serving as an appetizer or side with marinara sauce, offering a hands-on eating experience. The shaping step adds a thematic touch, suited for occasions like Halloween or family meals.

Ingredients

Servings

Breadsticks

  • 1 cup + 2 tablespoons water warm
  • 1 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt
  • 3 tablespoons canola oil
  • 3-3¼ cups flour

Topping

  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • ½ teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 tablespoon Parmesan Cheese grated

For Serving

  • marinara sauce

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, dissolve the yeast and sugar in the warm water. Let sit until foamy and bubbly.
  2. Add the salt, oil, and two cups of flour, and mix to combine. Add the remaining flour, ¼ cup at a time, to form a soft dough that pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Knead until smooth, then place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for one hour.
  3. After the dough has risen, gently punch it down and divide it into 16 equal pieces.
  4. Roll each piece into a 12-inch rope, then cut a 2-3 inch slit on each side of the rope. Roll the dough on either side of the slit into a spiral, in opposite directions, to make a bone shape.
  5. Place the breadsticks on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover and let rise for 45 minutes to an hour, until doubled in size.
  6. During the last 10 minutes of rise time, preheat the oven to 425℉. Bake 12-14 minutes, until golden brown.
  7. Remove from the oven and brush with the melted butter, then sprinkle with garlic salt, and parmesan. Serve warm.
