Ingredients

• 1 cup Warm water
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 3 cups Bread flour
• 1 teaspoon Instant yeast
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 teaspoon Crushed black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Butter (melted)
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (grated, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Add warm water, olive oil, sugar, and salt into the pan of the bread machine.

Step 2

Sprinkle the bread flour over the liquid ingredients, ensuring it covers them completely.

Step 3

Make a small well in the center of the flour, then add the instant yeast into the well.

Step 4

Set the bread machine to the 'Dough' cycle and start it. The machine will mix, knead, and allow the dough to rise.

Step 5

When the bread machine beeps to indicate the dough cycle is complete, remove the dough onto a lightly floured surface.

Step 6

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it.

Step 7

Knead the shredded cheddar cheese, black pepper, and garlic powder into the dough until evenly distributed.

Step 8

Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and roll each portion into a breadstick shape, about 8 inches long.

Step 9

Place the breadsticks onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart.

Step 10

Cover the breadsticks loosely with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise for 15-20 minutes until slightly puffy.

Step 11

Brush the risen breadsticks generously with melted butter and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 12

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the breadsticks are golden brown.

Step 13

Allow the breadsticks to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm and enjoy!
