In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, or until it becomes frothy.
Add the all-purpose flour, salt, and vegetable oil to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
Punch down the dough and roll it out into a large rectangle (about 9x13 inches). Using a pizza cutter or knife, slice the dough into 12 strips.
Transfer the dough strips onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart. Let them rest for 10 minutes.
Bake the breadsticks in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they turn golden brown.
While the breadsticks bake, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl.
Stir the garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and grated Parmesan cheese into the melted butter.
When the breadsticks come out of the oven, brush them generously with the seasoned butter mixture.
Serve the breadsticks warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as marinara or ranch, and enjoy!
