Ingredients

Garlic Butter Topping

Instructions

  • In a stand mixer bowl or large mixing bowl, combine warm water and yeast. Let rest for 5 minutes.
  • Using a dough hook or wooden spoon/rubber spatula, stir in melted butter, sugar, garlic powder, salt, and 1 cup of all purpose flour.
  • Stir in another cup of flour.
  • Add another cup of flour, stir it in and then test the dough. Pinch the dough with your fingers, the dough should be smooth and a tad tacky, but it should not stick to your fingers when pinched.
  • If the dough is still too sticky, stir in an additional ¼ cup of flour at a time until it is smooth and only a bit tacky.
  • Bump up speed on mixer to medium and knead dough for 2 minutes, or knead by hand on a floured surface until dough is smooth.
  • Place dough in oiled bowl, cover with clean towel or plastic wrap. Place in a warm, draft free area for 30-45 minutes, or until doubled in size.
  • Once doubled, turn dough out on a lightly floured surface. Spread dough out into a rectangle and cut dough into 12 equal pieces.
  • Roll each piece into a 5 inch rope and place on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Let the breadsticks rest in warm area while the oven preheats to 350°F, or at least 15 minutes.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown and when tapped they sound hollow.
  • While the breadsticks are baking, melt the butter for the topping. Then stir the garlic powder into the melted butter.
  • Immediately brush the breadsticks with garlic butter. For extra flavor, sprinkle with Italian seasoning and grated parmesan cheese.

Notes

  • For a quicker rise, preheat your oven to 175°F. When the dough is ready to rise, shut the oven off and place the covered dough in the oven to rise. It will only take 15-20 minutes to rise this way.
