Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup Whey protein isolate
- 1 packet Instant yeast
- 1 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, whey protein isolate, instant yeast, salt, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, mix warm water, olive oil, and honey until the honey dissolves. Ensure the water is not too hot as it can kill the yeast.
Step 3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until a sticky dough forms.
Step 4
Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Step 5
Place the dough back in the bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for approximately 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Step 6
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 7
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.
Step 8
Using a pizza cutter or a sharp knife, cut the dough into strips about 1 inch wide.
Step 9
Twist each strip several times and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 10
Sprinkle the twisted bread sticks with grated Parmesan cheese.
Step 11
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
Step 12
Allow the bread sticks to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them plain, or with your favorite dipping sauce!
