Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
• 1 cup Warm water (110°F)
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast. Stir until well mixed.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 6

Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal parts. Roll each part into a thin rope, about 10-12 inches long.

Step 7

Twist each rope a few times to create a spiral effect and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each.

Step 8

Brush the twists with half of the melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder and Italian seasoning, if using.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Remove the breadsticks from the oven and immediately brush them with the remaining butter. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top, if desired.

Step 11

Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or alongside a meal. Enjoy!
