Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup warm water about 105–110°F
  • 2 tsp granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp active dry yeast
  • 1.5 tsp kosher salt
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 5 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1.5 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 0.5 tsp paprika
  • 0.5 tsp fine salt for the topping
  • 3 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp cornmeal for dusting pan, optional
  • 1 cup marinara sauce for dipping

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Warm the water to 105–110°F.
  • Stir in sugar and yeast. Let stand until foamy, 5–10 minutes.
  • Combine flour and kosher salt in a bowl. Add yeast mixture and olive oil, mixing to a shaggy dough.
  • Knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth and slightly tacky, 6–8 minutes.
  • Lightly oil a bowl, add dough, cover, and let rise until doubled, 45–60 minutes.
  • Mix garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, basil, paprika, and fine salt for the topping. Melt the butter and set aside.
  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment. Brush lightly with melted butter and dust with cornmeal.
  • Punch down the dough. Press or roll into a 9×13-inch rectangle on the pan.
  • Cut into 12 strips with a pizza cutter, keeping the pieces nestled together.
  • Brush generously with melted butter. Sprinkle evenly with the seasoning mix and Parmesan.
  • Heat oven to 425°F while the dough rests 10 minutes.
  • Bake until puffed and golden at the edges, 12–15 minutes.
  • Brush with remaining butter. Separate the breadsticks and serve warm with marinara.

Notes

Variation: For cheesy breadsticks, sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella over the top during the last 3 minutes of baking. Storage: Cool completely, then store airtight at room temperature for 1 day or freeze up to 2 months; rewarm at 325°F until soft.
