Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup Whey protein isolate
- 1 packet Instant yeast
- 1 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, whey protein isolate, instant yeast, salt, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, mix warm water, olive oil, and honey until the honey dissolves. Ensure the water is not too hot as it can kill the yeast.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until a sticky dough forms.
Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Place the dough back in the bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for approximately 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.
Using a pizza cutter or a sharp knife, cut the dough into strips about 1 inch wide.
Twist each strip several times and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Sprinkle the twisted bread sticks with grated Parmesan cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
Allow the bread sticks to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them plain, or with your favorite dipping sauce!
