Extra Cheesy Bacon Breadsticks
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups of warm water
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- 1 packet of active dry yeast
- 3 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 cup of olive oil
- 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup of cooked bacon bits
- 2 tablespoons of melted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon of dried basil
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of warm water, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1 packet of active dry yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of salt. Gradually add the yeast mixture and 1/4 cup of olive oil, stirring 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 425°F (220°C). Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a breadstick shape and place them on a greased baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of melted butter, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon of dried basil. Brush the breadsticks with the butter mixture.
- Sprinkle the breadsticks with 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese, and 1/2 cup of cooked bacon bits.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the breadsticks are golden and the cheese is bubbly. Serve warm and enjoy!
