In a large mixing bowl or in the bowl of a stand mixer, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir slightly and let sit for about 5 minutes until the mixture is bubbly and foamy.
Add the olive oil, salt, and about half of the flour to the yeast mixture. Mix until combined.
Gradually add the remaining flour, mixing to form a slightly sticky dough. If using a stand mixer, knead with the dough hook attachment for about 5 minutes on medium speed, or knead by hand on a floured surface for about 7 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough inside, cover with plastic wrap or a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a log about 7 inches long.
Place the dough logs onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced evenly. Cover them lightly with a cloth and let them rest for about 15 minutes.
While the dough rests, melt the vegan butter in a small pan or microwave. Mix in the garlic powder, dried oregano, and dried parsley.
Brush the melted vegan butter mixture liberally over the dough sticks.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
Once baked, brush the breadsticks again with any remaining vegan butter mixture if desired.
Serve warm, and enjoy your homemade vegan Olive Garden style breadsticks!
