Whole Wheat Breadsticks

Author: Toni Anderson

Ingredients

For the Breadsticks

  • 1 1/3 cups warm water
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cups flour I used whole wheat
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons oregano
  • 3 tablespoons powdered milk
  • 2 teaspoons yeast
  • cornmeal for rolling the dough, do not add to the dough mixture

For the Topping

  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • Garlic Powder
  • Parmesan Cheese
  • Salt

Instructions

  • Mix together olive oil, yeast, salt, oregano, powdered milk, and warm water.
  • Add in flour.
  • Knead for 5 minutes.
  • Cover dough and let rise until doubled.
  • Punch down dough and roll out into a rectangle. To get that pizza parlor taste use cornmeal instead of flour to roll the dough.
  • Place dough on a greased cookie sheet. Push or roll the dough so it fills the entire cookie sheet.
  • With a knife or pizza cutter slice the dough into one inch strips. Don’t cut all the way through the dough, only about half-way through.
  • Let rise for 30 -45 minutes.
  • Mix together melted butter, garlic powder and Parmesan cheese.
  • Brush the mixture on top of the breadsticks, then sprinkle a pinch of salt.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until the top turns golden brown.

Notes

I used a 9 x 13 pan, which I do not recommend because the breadsticks were really thick. A cookie sheet creates the perfect sized breadsticks.
