Ingredients
For the Dough
- 3/4 cup Water (105-115°f)
- 1 tsp Active Yeast dry
- 1 tsp Sugar granulated
- 2 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour plus more for dusting
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 7 clove Garlic minced
- 1 tsp Oregano dried, or italian seasoning
Instructions
Activate the Yeast
- Combine warm water, yeast, and sugar in a large bowl. Let stand for 10-15 minutes until foamy.
Make the Dough
- Add melted butter, minced garlic, oregano, and salt to the yeast mixture. Gradually add flour, kneading until a soft, elastic dough forms. Knead for 8-10 minutes.
First Rise
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size. Alternatively, refrigerate overnight for a slower rise.
Shape the Breadsticks
- Punch down the dough and divide it in half. Shape each half into a smooth ball. Let rest for 10 minutes.
Prepare the Baking Sheet
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil. Sprinkle with cornmeal.
Roll and Cut
- On a lightly cornmeal-dusted surface, roll each dough ball into a 12-inch long rectangle. Fold it in half lengthwise, then cut into 1-inch wide strips.
Bake the Breadsticks
- Arrange the breadsticks on the prepared baking sheet. Brush generously with melted butter and sprinkle with oregano.
Final Bake
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Garlic Breadsticks
- Use good quality, freshly minced garlic for the most intense flavor.
- Don't be shy with the butter! Generous buttering ensures a rich, flavorful result.
- For extra crispy breadsticks, bake them on a pizza stone or baking steel.
- Experiment with different herbs and spices – rosemary, thyme, or parmesan cheese would all be delicious additions.
