Ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 2.25 teaspoons active dry yeast
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup warm water
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.

Step 2

Add salt, olive oil, and 2 1/2 cups of flour to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough starts to form.

Step 3

Gradually add the remaining 1/2 cup of flour, kneading the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it is soft and elastic. If the dough is sticky, add a little more flour as needed.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 6

Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a long stick shape, about 8-10 inches in length.

Step 7

Arrange the bread sticks on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between them.

Step 8

Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and brush it over the top of the bread sticks. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.

Step 9

While the bread sticks are baking, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and stir in garlic powder, dried parsley, and grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 10

As soon as the bread sticks come out of the oven, brush them generously with the garlic butter mixture.

Step 11

Serve warm and enjoy!
