Description

Delicious garlic breadsticks that are soft and buttery, perfect for any meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ¼ cups warm water (not hot)
  • 2 ½ tsp instant yeast
  • 2 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 34 cups all-purpose flour
  • 4 Tbsp salted butter (melted, divided)
  • 1 tsp garlic salt

Instructions

  1. In a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment add the water, yeast, brown sugar, salt, and 1 ½ cups of the flour.
  2. Knead the dough on a low speed until all the flour is incorporated. Add more flour, ½ cup at a time until the dough clears the sides of the bowl.
  3. Once the dough has enough flour, knead for 3-4 more minutes.
  4. Remove the dough to your hand for a second while you grease the bowl with cooking spray.
  5. Return the dough to the bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rise until nearly doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  6. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 400°F. Spread 2 tablespoons of the melted butter over the top of the parchment paper.
  7. Once the dough has risen, lightly grease a counter and tip the dough onto it. Roll or pat the dough into a roughly 16-inch x 8-inch rectangle.
  8. Cut the dough using a pizza cutter into 1-inch strips. Twist each dough strip a few times and place on the baking sheet.
  9. Use a pastry brush to brush the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over the breadsticks and sprinkle with garlic salt.
  10. Let the breadsticks rise for 20 minutes before baking.
  11. Bake for about 14-16 minutes until the breadsticks are golden brown on top.
  12. Remove from oven and enjoy hot.

Notes

  • For the instant yeast, ensure it is fresh for the best rise.
  • Adjust the amount of flour based on the dough consistency.
