Serving16 Breadsticks
Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water*
- 2 ½ teaspoon yeast
- 3 Tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup vegetable oil, or canola oil
- 3 cups all-purpose flour, (start with 2 ½ cups and add more as needed)
- 2 Tablespoons butter , melted
- garlic salt, optional topping
- Parmesan cheese, optional topping
- Italian seasoning, optional topping
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, mix together warm water, yeast, sugar, and salt until sugar has dissolved.
- Add in oil and flour and mix until a smooth dough forms and it's no longer sticky.
- Roll out into a 10x12" rectangle.
- Cut into strips about ¾" - 1" wide.
- Twist each strip once or twice and lay out on a greased baking sheet (I sprayed mine with non-stick cooking spray).
- Let breadsticks rise for 20 minutes (longer if you can, but at least 20 minutes).
- Bake at 375℉ for 10-15 minutes.
- When the breadsticks come out of the oven, brush breadsticks with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic salt, Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning.
Notes
- When using warm water for making bread, we found a rule of thumb is to use water that is just a little hotter than what you would use to wash your face. If it's too hot for your face, it's too hot for yeast. It should be around 110℉.
- You could also use bread flour in place of all-purpose flour.
- If you want to flavor the breadsticks a little more, add ½ Tablespoon garlic powder and ½ Tablespoon Italian seasoning.
- When cutting dough into strips, we found that using a pizza cutter made it super easy!
