Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, granulated sugar, and salt.
Slowly add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 6–8 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rest for 10 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, mix the smoked paprika and garlic powder with the melted butter.
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a long, thin rope approximately 10 inches in length.
Brush each breadstick with the smoked paprika and garlic butter mixture using a pastry brush.
Spread the grated Parmesan cheese on a plate. Roll each buttered breadstick in the Parmesan to coat evenly.
Place the breadsticks on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small gap between each one.
Bake the breadsticks for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
Optional: Sprinkle the baked breadsticks with fresh parsley before serving for added flavor and presentation.
Serve warm and enjoy!
