Ingredients

The following ingredients have 14 Servings
  • 2.5 cups bread flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1.5 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1¾ teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter (melted)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2-3 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
  • garlic salt (to sprinkle)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 400 F degrees.
  • In a bowl, whisk together flour, salt, minced garlic and dried oregano. Set aside.
  • In a measuring cup, take warm water and add honey to it. Add active dry yeast and give a quick stir.
  • Let the yeast activate for 5-10 minutes. This is called proofing of the yeast. You will know your yeast is proofed/active when it's all bubbly and frothy on top. If you don't see any bubbling up, your yeast is dead. Throw the water and start again.
  • To the flour mix, now add olive oil and mix.
  • Add the yeast mixture to the flour mixture and knead using the hook attachment of your stand mixer or your hands for 7-8 minutes.
  • Knead till the dough looks smooth. Place the dough in a well oiled bowl and set aside for 15 minutes in a warm place.
  • Divide the dough into 2 equal parts and flatten each dough into a square shape.
  • Transfer the flattened dough to a baking sheet and brush melted butter on top of each flattened dough square.
  • Cover half of the dough with grated mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle some garlic salt on top.
  • Take the other half of the dough and fold it to cover the cheese. Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese on top.
  • Using your pizza cutter, cut thin strips of the dough.
  • Bake at 400 F degrees for 14-16 minutes or till lightly golden brown in color.
  • Enjoy these cheesy garlic bread sticks immediately with some tomato ketchup on the side!
