Equipment

  • Stand Mixer
  • Oven
  • pizza stone
  • parchment paper

Ingredients
  

Dough

  • 1 ⅛ teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup warm water
  • 1 ½ Tablespoons olive oil
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon white vinegar
  • 1 ½ - 2 cups bread flour or all-purpose flour

Topping

  • 1 ½ Tablespoons salted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 ¼ cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a large bowl or stand mixer combine ½ cup of the warm water with the sugar and yeast. Stir to combine and let rest for 5 minutes. Add the remaining ¼ cup warm water, olive oil, salt, and vinegar.
  • Begin mixing on medium-low speed and gradually add the flour -- knead for a few minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic. Cover the bowl with a dry towel and allow to rest in a warm place for 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 475 degrees F with a pizza stone inside or upside down cookie sheet inside.
  • Gently punch the dough down. Place a large piece of parchment paper on your counter and use your hands to spread the dough into a rectangle about ⅓ inch thick.
  • Mix melted butter and garlic in a small bowl then spread mixture evenly over dough, all the way to the edges. Top with parmesan and mozzarella cheeses.
  • Transfer the dough (still on the parchment paper) onto the hot pizza stone in the oven. Bake for 8-12 minutes or until golden and bubbly.
  • Serve with dipping sauces like marinara sauce or ranch.

Notes

Make the dough 3-4 hours before you want to bake breadsticks, storing it in the refrigerator to rise. Freeze dough for 2-3 months and allow to thaw overnight in the refrigerator.
