Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 packet instant yeast
- 1 cup warm water
- 0.5 cup low-fat plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 cup low-fat mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 large egg white
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and instant yeast.
Gradually add the warm water and stir until the ingredients are well combined.
Mix in the low-fat plain yogurt, olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and dried oregano. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 to 7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal portions.
Roll each portion into a breadstick about 6 inches long. Place the breadsticks on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, beat the egg white until frothy. Brush the breadsticks with the beaten egg white.
Evenly sprinkle the shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese over the breadsticks.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the breadsticks are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow the breadsticks to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
Serve warm as a snack or alongside your favorite dish.
