Italian-American · Side dish · 35 min total

These soft and fluffy garlic breadsticks are brushed with garlic butter and sprinkled with herbs, perfect as a side or appetizer.

Ingredients

• 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
• 1 cup warm water (110°F)
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water; let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
2. In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add yeast mixture and olive oil; stir until dough forms.
3. Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes.
4. Place dough in a greased bowl, turning once to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
5. Punch down dough; divide into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 6-inch rope.
6. Place ropes on greased baking sheets, cover, and let rise until puffy, about 30 minutes.
7. Preheat oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, mix melted butter and minced garlic; brush over breadsticks.
8. Sprinkle with oregano, basil, and Parmesan if using. Bake until golden brown, 12-15 minutes.
9. Serve warm.

Tips

• For extra garlic flavor, add 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder to the flour mixture.
• Leftover breadsticks can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
• Reheat in a 350°F oven for 5 minutes to refresh.
