Servings: 12
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup(s) hot water
2 tablespoon(s) sugar
1 tablespoon(s) yeast
1 tablespoon(s) salt
2 tablespoon(s) butter, softened
4 1/2 cup(s) flour
3 tablespoon(s) butter, melted
pinch(s) kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon(s) garlic powder
Directions:
1. For the dough, pour the water into a stand mixer with the sugar and yeast. Let that sit and froth for about 10 minutes. Then add salt, butter, and 2 cups of flour. Mix the dough with your mixer on low. Add the rest of the flour a half cup at a time, until dough scrapes the sides of the bowl clean. Mix the dough about 5 minutes on medium speed, until it’s soft and easy to work with.
2. Roll the dough out into a long log, spray a knife with cooking spray and cut the dough into 12-14 pieces. Roll those pieces into long snakes.
3. Spray 2 large cookie sheets with cooking spray, and lay the breadsticks out leaving about 2 inches between each one. Place them in the oven with the temperature turned to 170 degrees F. Let them rise for about 15 minutes, or until doubled in size.
4. Once risen, brush them with 1 1/2 Tablespoons of melted butter and sprinkle them with salt. Return them to the oven and heat oven to 400 degrees F. Once the temperature hits 400 degrees F, bake them for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
5. While they are baking combine the rest of the melted butter with the garlic powder. When the breadsticks are golden brown, remove them from the oven and brush them with the butter/garlic mixture.
