Dough:
- 1 cup warm water
- 2 teaspoons instant or active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 to 2 1/4 cups all-purpose or bread flour
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or olive oil
Toppings:
- 1 tablespoon garlic herb seasoning
- 1 1/2 to 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and place a baking stone on a rack in the lower third of the oven.
- Mix the dough: Combine warm water, yeast, and sugar in a bowl. Add salt and flour to form a dough. Knead the dough and let it rise.
- Prepare the pan: Grease a sheet pan and press the dough into a rectangle on it.
- Add toppings: Brush the dough with butter, sprinkle with garlic herb seasoning, then add mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
- Bake: Bake the breadsticks for 15-17 minutes until golden and bubbly.
- Serve: Cut the breadsticks and enjoy!
Notes
- Garlic Herb Seasoning: If you don’t have store-bought seasoning, you can make your own blend with kosher salt, dried basil, dried oregano, garlic powder, and dried thyme.
- Proofing the Yeast: While not necessary, proofing the yeast can help the dough rise better due to its quick rising time.
