Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup warm water (110°F / 43°C)
- 2 tsp active dry yeast
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)
Instructions
- Activate the yeast by mixing warm water, sugar, and yeast in a small bowl. Let it sit for about five minutes until frothy.
- In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Create a well in the center and add the yeast mixture along with olive oil. Mix until dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about one hour or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the risen dough and roll it out into a rectangle about half an inch thick. Cut into strips using a knife or pizza cutter.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Place shaped breadsticks on parchment-lined baking sheets and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
