Scale
For the Breadsticks:
- 1 1/2 cups warm water (110°F/45°C)
- 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 tbsp salt
For the Topping:
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
- Step 1: Activate the Yeast:.In a small bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, and granulated sugar. Stir gently and let sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
- Step 2: Prepare the Dough:.In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the flour, softened butter, and salt. Add the yeast mixture and knead the dough by hand or with a dough hook on medium speed until smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes.
- Step 3: First Rise:. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Step 4: Shape the Breadsticks:.Punch down the dough and divide it into 12-14 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 6-7 inch long rope and place them on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Step 5: Second Rise:. Cover the shaped breadsticks with a kitchen towel and let them rise for another 20-30 minutes until puffy.
- Step 6: Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Step 7: Bake the Breadsticks: Bake the breadsticks in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Step 8: Prepare the Topping: While the breadsticks are baking, melt the 1/4 cup of unsalted butter and mix in the garlic powder and salt.
