Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Dough Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups warm water Aim for warm water (100–110°F) to activate the yeast.
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar Helps activate the yeast.
  • 1 teaspoon salt Regular table salt.
  • 1 tablespoon yeast Active dry or instant yeast works.
  • 3.75 cups all-purpose flour Use as needed to form a soft dough.
Topping Ingredients
  • 1/3 cup melted butter Divided into two parts for layering.
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (finely grated) Adds rich flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt For additional flavor.
  • 1.5 teaspoons Italian seasoning Adds a blend of herbs.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Add warm water, yeast, sugar, and salt to a large mixing bowl. Let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes or until bubbly.
  2. Using the dough hook attachment, slowly add the flour. Mix until the dough starts to form a loose ball. Cover the mixing bowl with a dish towel and let the dough proof for 30 to 45 minutes or until doubled.
  3. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Prepare a sheet pan.
  4. Melt the butter and pour half onto the sheet pan's bottom.
  5. Place the dough in the center of the sheet pan and press outwards until it covers the bottom of the pan.
  6. Pour the remaining melted butter over the dough's top, sprinkle Parmesan cheese, garlic salt, and Italian seasoning.
  7. Let sit for 15 to 20 minutes or until the dough rises about an inch.
  8. Using a pizza cutter, cut the breadsticks into rows.
  9. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until slightly golden around the edges.
  10. Let cool for a couple of minutes before serving.

Notes

Wrap cooled breadsticks in foil or place them in an airtight container. They’ll keep at room temperature for 1–2 days, and for longer storage, freeze in a zip-top bag for up to 2 months; reheat in a 350°F oven until warmed through. For extra shine, brush with additional melted butter immediately after baking.
