Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 packet Active dry yeast
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Warm water (110°F/43°C)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, granulated sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir and let it sit for 5 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.
Add the olive oil, salt, and 2 1/2 cups of the flour to the yeast mixture. Stir until a shaggy dough begins to form.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Knead for about 8-10 minutes, gradually adding the remaining 1/2 cup of flour as needed until the dough 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 place for 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Punch down the dough and transfer it back to a floured surface. Roll the dough out into a rectangle, approximately 9x12 inches.
Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice the dough into 12 equal strips.
Take each strip and gently twist it. Place the twisted strips on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between each breadstick.
Cover the breadsticks with the kitchen towel and let them rest for 15 minutes while you prepare the garlic butter.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the garlic powder and set aside.
Brush each breadstick lightly with the garlic butter mixture. Reserve some butter for brushing after baking.
Bake the breadsticks in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
Immediately after removing the breadsticks from the oven, brush them with the remaining garlic butter.
Sprinkle the warm breadsticks generously with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley, if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy!
