🥖 Homemade Breadsticks
📝 Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour

In a bowl, mix flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Add warm water and oil. Knead for 8–10 minutes until soft and smooth. - Let it rise
Cover and let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size. - Shape the breadsticks
Roll the dough into a rectangle, then cut into strips. Twist or leave straight. - Second rise (optional)
Let them rest for 15–20 minutes for extra softness. - Bake
Place on a baking tray and bake at 180°C (350°F) for 12–15 minutes until lightly golden. - Add topping
Brush with melted butter, sprinkle garlic and herbs, and add cheese if you like.
🍽️ Tips:
- For extra softness, brush with butter right after baking
- Serve with garlic sauce, cheese dip, or creamy dishes
- You can stuff them with cheese before baking 😋
