Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water
- 2.25 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 3.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons vegan margarine
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon dried parsley
Instructions
Start by combining warm water, active dry yeast, and 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes foamy.
Add the all-purpose flour, salt, remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar, and olive oil to the yeast mixture. Stir to combine until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Once the dough has doubled in size, punch it down and remove it from the bowl. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and roll each portion into a log shape, about 8 inches long.
Place the formed breadsticks onto the prepared baking sheet, cover them loosely with a towel, and let them rise for an additional 15 minutes.
Melt the vegan margarine in a small saucepan or microwave. Stir in the garlic powder and dried parsley.
Brush the tops of the breadsticks with half of the margarine mixture, reserving the rest for later.
Bake the breadsticks in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Remove the breadsticks from the oven and immediately brush them with the remaining margarine mixture.
Serve the breadsticks warm, and enjoy your Dairy-Free Olive Garden Breadsticks!
