Breadsticks
Ingredients
-
2 cups warm water
-
1 tsp dry yeast
-
2 TBSP sugar
-
5 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 tsp garlic salt
-
1 tsp baking powder
-
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
-
5 TBSP oil
-
1 egg
Instructions
-
Combine the water, yeast, and sugar and allow it to poof while preparing other ingredients.
-
Place the dry ingredients (flour, salt, baking powder, and Parmesan cheese) into a large bowl or bread machine. Stir in the egg and oil and pour in the yeast mixture. Gently stir until dough comes together. Knead by hand for 5 minutes or if using a bread machine set on dough settings. Allow dough to rise until doubled (up to an hour after kneading.)
-
Transfer dough unto a lightly floured surface and evenly divide the dough into 4 equal pieces. Cut each piece into 8 pieces and roll each piece out to a 7-inch stick. Place breadsticks into well-greased pans (oil is key for a nice crust) and allow to rise 20 minutes.
-
Brush breadsticks with oil and bake in a preheated 425° F oven for 8-10 minutes. Brush hot breadsticks with melted butter or olive oil and generously sprinkle garlic salt over each breadstick before serving.
