Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon instant yeast
- ¾ cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
Instructions
Activate Yeast
- Mix warm water, sugar and yeast in a bowl. Let sit 5 minutes until foamy.
Mix Dough
- Add flour, salt and olive oil. Mix until dough forms.
Knead Dough
- Knead dough on floured surface for 5 minutes. Dough should be soft and smooth.
Let Dough Rise
- Place dough in a bowl. Cover with a cloth. Let rise 1 hour until doubled.
Preheat Oven
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
Shape Breadsticks
- Divide dough into 6 pieces. Roll each piece into a long stick shape.
Prepare Garlic Butter
- Melt butter in a small saucepan. Add minced garlic and parsley. Stir well.
Brush Dough
- Brush half of garlic butter over breadsticks before baking.
Bake Breadsticks
- Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden brown and soft in the center.
Brush Again
- Brush remaining garlic butter on hot breadsticks. Serve warm.
Notes
- Use warm water to activate yeast properly.
- Don’t over-knead dough; it should stay soft.
- Let dough rise fully for fluffier breadsticks.
- Brush butter while breadsticks are hot for best flavor.
- Use fresh garlic instead of powder for stronger taste.
