Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 packet instant yeast
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup warm water
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix well.

Step 2

Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Stir until a soft dough forms.

Step 3

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 6

Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a breadstick shape, about 8 inches long.

Step 7

Place the shaped breadsticks on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.

Step 8

Brush the breadsticks with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder, red pepper flakes, and grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 9

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

Step 10

While the breadsticks are still hot, sprinkle them with shredded mozzarella cheese and return them to the oven for 1-2 minutes, just until the cheese is melted.

Step 11

Remove the breadsticks from the oven, transfer to a serving platter, and garnish with chopped parsley.

Step 12

Serve warm and enjoy your Hot Diggity Breadsticks with your favorite dipping sauce!
