In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt.
Create a well in the center and pour in the warm water and olive oil. Mix until a dough begins to form.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Alternatively, use a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and allow it to rise in a warm location for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release air. Roll it into a rectangle approximately 12x8 inches in size.
Melt the vegan butter in a small bowl and mix in the garlic powder.
Brush the melted butter mixture generously over the rolled-out dough.
Sprinkle the dried oregano and nutritional yeast evenly over the surface.
Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into 1-inch wide strips, then cut these in half to create breadstick lengths.
Carefully twist each strip slightly and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Allow the breadsticks to cool slightly before serving. They are best enjoyed warm!
