Cheesy Breadsticks with Italian Herbs and Garlic Butter
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 tablespoon of Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1 packet of active dry yeast
- 2/3 cup of warm water
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 1/2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of flour, 1 teaspoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of salt, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
- In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
- Add the yeast mixture and olive oil to the dry ingredients, and mix until a dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 10-inch rope and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 8 minutes, then remove from the oven and sprinkle the breadsticks with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the breadsticks are golden brown.
- While the breadsticks are baking, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in the chopped parsley.
- Once the breadsticks are done, brush them with the garlic butter mixture while still hot. Serve warm and enjoy!
