Ingredients
- 1½ cups warm water (about 115°F)
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ cup non-fat dry milk powder
- 1 tbsp yeast
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- ½ cup melted butter
- 8 oz package of mozzarella cheese
- garlic powder
- Parmesan cheese
- salt & pepper
Preparation
Step 1
Dissolve yeast in the warm water. Let sit for 5 minutes until foamy (unless using instant dry yeast, in which case proceed directly to the next step)
Step 2
Add sugar, milk, and salt, and mix.
Add enough flour to form a moderately stiff dough so that it is not sticky to the touch.
May need up to ½ more flour.
Step 3
Knead the dough until smooth, 8 to 10 minutes.
Roll the dough into the size and shape of your baking pan (about 13×18-inches).
Step 4
Spread half of the butter onto the bottom of the pan and then place the dough into the pan. Let rise in warm, draft-free place for 15 minutes.
Step 5
Spread remaining butter on the top of the dough. Using a cutter or knife, gently cut dough into sticks, without separating the dough.
Top dough with cheese and optional toppings (garlic powder, parmesan, salt & pepper) or leave it plain.
Step 6
Bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
Cut into imprinted breadsticks and serve with marinara sauce.
