# How to Make It:
01 -
Preheat oven to 260°C. Grease a 33×46 cm baking sheet or line with parchment paper.
02 -
In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water, instant yeast, granulated sugar, and salt. Allow mixture to rest for 2–3 minutes.
03 -
Gradually incorporate all-purpose flour while mixing until a soft dough is achieved. Knead by hand or mixer for approximately 5 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
04 -
Let dough rest for 5 minutes. Roll out evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, covering the entire surface.
05 -
Combine melted butter with garlic powder. Brush evenly over the rolled-out dough.
06 -
Scatter shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan uniformly over the dough. Sprinkle with dried parsley or Italian seasoning if desired.
07 -
Using a pizza cutter, lightly score the dough into 12 breadsticks of desired size before baking.
08 -
Transfer to the oven and bake for 10–12 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
09 -
Allow breadsticks to cool briefly. Re-cut along the scored lines and serve warm.
# Extra Tips:
01 -
For crispier edges, bake on the lower oven rack.
02 -
Breadsticks can be made ahead and reheated in the oven.
03 -
Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
04 -
Use pre-made pizza dough to reduce preparation time.
