Butter Herb Breadsticks
These Butter Herb Breadsticks are the perfect starter and accompaniment to soups, salads, pastas, and entrees of all types, these bread sticks keep you coming back for more. They are addictive and delicious. The light seasoning makes them practically melt in your mouth. You might as well plan on making a double batch because the first few will be gone before you know it.
Yield: 12-14 breadsticks
Ingredients:
– 1 packet dry, active yeast
– 1 1/2 cups warm water
– 2 tbsp sugar
– 1 tbsp salt
– 2 tbsp melted butter
– 3 1/2 cups bread flour
For brushing:
– 1/4 cup melted butter
– 2 teaspoon Olive Garden garlic seasoning, or regular garlic powder
– 1 tsp salt
Instructions:
In a warm bowl, dissolve sugar and yeast with warm water. Let sit for about 5-10 minutes, until foamy
Add salt, melted butter and about 2 cups of the flour. Knead dough for about 5 minutes, adding more flour as necessary.
Spray baking pan with cooking spray. Divide dough into small balls, large enough to fill about 1/3 cup. Make larger if desired but not too large as your bread will rise.
Roll and shape dough into cigar shapes. Place in baking pan at least 1 inch apart. Let stand for about 1 hour, covered a clean cloth.
Bake 7 minutes at 375F. While baking, combine melted butter, garlic powder/seasoning and salt for brushing.
Pull baking sheet out of oven, brush the bread sticks with the seasoned, melted butter. Return to oven, bake another 8 – 10 minutes.
Brush with remaining seasoned butter. Serve warm.
These breadsticks do look wonderful! I bet the garlic powder on top gives great flavor. I hope you can stop on by and share this or any other recipe with us on Five Friday Finds!
