Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Warm water (110-115°F)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried Italian herbs

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, granulated sugar, and salt.

Step 2

Gradually add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients, mixing until the dough comes together.

Step 3

Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.

Step 4

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Step 5

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 6

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and transfer it to a clean surface. Roll it out into a rectangle approximately 10x12 inches in size.

Step 7

Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice the dough into 12 strips.

Step 8

Twist each strip gently and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each breadstick lightly with the melted butter.

Step 9

In a small bowl, mix the grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and dried Italian herbs.

Step 10

Sprinkle the Parmesan mixture generously over the breadsticks.

Step 11

Bake the breadsticks in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.

Step 12

Remove from the oven and allow the breadsticks to cool slightly before serving. Optionally, serve with marinara sauce or garlic butter for dipping.
