Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1/2 cup warm water (~100° to 110°F)
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast (1 package)
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cups (22 ounces) bread flour (plus more for working the dough)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 3 tablespoons butter (melted)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Instruction

  • Place 1/2 cup of warm water and yeast in a medium bowl and whisk together briefly. Allow the yeast enough time to bubble up and become active. This should take a few minutes. If the yeast is inactive, you may need to replace the yeast and try again.
  • Add room temperature water and oil to the yeast mixture, and stir to combine.
  • Place the flour and salt in a food processor, and pulse to combine.
  • Add the yeast mixture through the tube of the food processor and process. The dough will form into a ball. Process until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  • Place the dough in a bowl that has been sprayed with non-stick spray, and cover with plastic wrap. Let the dough rise until doubled in size, up to 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Gently pat out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangular shape.
  • Cut the dough into two equal portions down the middle. Then make about 8 cuts horizontally across the dough.
  • Roll each portion of dough into a breadstick.
  • Spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray and place the dough strips onto the baking sheet.
  • Bake for about 18 minutes or until the breadsticks become golden.
  • Mix the melted butter and the garlic salt.
  • Brush the garlic sauce over the breadsticks and sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top.
