Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups warm water about 105 F
- 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour plus extra for sprinkling. Please see the note below about the flour.
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2-1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese optional
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer (or in a large bowl), stir together the warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes or until foamy.
- Mix in flour and salt. The dough should clear the sides of the mixing bowl and feel slightly sticky but shouldn't come off on your fingers if you pinch it.
- Knead dough for three minutes.
- Cover, and let the dough rest for 10 minutes.
- Grease an 11X17-inch baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
- On a floured surface, roll out the dough into about a 12x16-inch rectangle about 1/2-inch thick.
- Cut the dough in half width-wise with a pizza cutter. Cut into 8 strips lengthwise for a total of 16 strips.
- Twist each strip slightly (or leave them as strips), and place about 1/2-inch apart on the baking sheet.
- Cover with greased plastic wrap and let rise 30 minutes. Toward the end of the resting time, preheat oven to 375 F.
- Bake 12-20 minutes or until golden brown.
- While breadsticks are baking, stir together butter, seasoning, and garlic salt.
- Brush over hot breadsticks, and then sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, if using.
Notes
- Warm water: The water should be about 105 F. Water that's too hot will kill the yeast. Water that's too cool will slow the rising process.
- Yeast: Can sub an equal amount of instant yeast. If using instant yeast, there's no need to let the yeast mixture stand until foamy.
- Flour: You may find that you need to use a little more or less flour depending on how you measure and other factors like the humidity where you live.
- Butter: I use salted butter in this recipe.
- Garlic salt: If you're watching your sodium, you can use garlic powder in place of part of the garlic salt.
- Mixing by hand: If you'd like to make the dough by hand, I have a section above the recipe that gives the instructions for that.
