Cheese Breadsticks (Grocery Store Bakery Copycat)
Description
This recipe starts by preparing a batch of dough similar to hot dog bun dough, known for its soft, fluffy texture. After rising, the dough is divided into equal portions, rolled into elongated logs about 10 inches long, and placed on parchment-lined baking sheets. The dough tops are lightly spritzed with water to aid in browning and cheese adhesion. Grated or shredded cheddar cheese is sprinkled evenly over the dough before baking.
The breadsticks bake at 375°F (191°C) for about 14-15 minutes until the cheese melts, crisps, and develops a golden color. For extra color and crispness, the temperature can be increased briefly at the end. The breadsticks feature a tender crumb with a sharp, crispy cheddar crust, suitable as an appetizer, side, or snack.
The method emulates the style and texture of popular store-bought cheese breadsticks, making this a satisfying homemade alternative. They can be served warm on their own or with marinara or other dipping sauces.
