Garlic Breadsticks

Gather the ingredients.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, pour the lukewarm water and add the oil, yeast, and sugar. Mix gently.

Using the dough hook attachment, mix and add in the flour gradually until the dough is no longer sticky and pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Continue to knead the mixture with the dough hook for about 3 to 5 minutes.

Drizzle the dough and the sides of the bowl with more olive oil. Cover the bowl with a clean cloth and let rise for 1 hour in a warm place.

Gather the ingredients.

Preheat the oven to 425 F. Rub olive oil onto a rolling pin and brush a light layer of oil onto a piece of parchment paper. Grease a baking sheet as well, or line it with parchment paper.

Roll the pizza dough out into a thick rectangle on the oiled parchment paper. The dough should be about 3/4- to 1-inch thick, and make roughly an 8- by 11-inch rectangle.

Cut the dough into strips using a pizza cutter or flour scraper. You should be able to cut about 10 (1-inch wide) strips.

Place the strips on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the strips with olive oil.

Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, or until golden brown and fluffy.

In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, garlic, parsley, salt, basil, and garlic powder.

While the bread sticks are still warm, brush the garlic butter on top of each breadstick.

Serve and enjoy!
