These soft whole wheat breadsticks with their ultra fluffy interior and garlic butter topping are worthy of satisfying your breadstick cravings. The dough is easy to make, and you only need a few simple ingredients.

Ingredients:

Whole wheat flour Yeast Raw cane sugar Salt Water Oil Butter Garlic Flaky salt

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1: Add the water, yeast and sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer, let sit until bubbly and foamy (5-10 minutes).

Step 2: Add the salt, oil and about 1 cup of flour and stir until smooth.

Step 3: Add enough flour to make a very soft dough, about 1¼ - 1½ cups (the dough needs to be very sticky).

Did you know that a wheat seed or berry has 3 parts?

Step 4: Knead on medium speed until the dough is smooth and elastic, (about 4-6 minutes).

Step 5: Place the dough into an oiled bowl. Cover and let rise until doubled in size. This can take anywhere from 30-60 minutes.

Step 6: Melt the butter and mince the garlic. Stir the garlic into the butter and let infuse while the dough rises.

Step 7: Grease a baking sheet (we use a 13x9 inch sheet pan). Punch down the dough and turn out onto the tray. Using oiled or wet hands, press the dough evenly onto the tray.

Step 8: Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut the dough into 6 strips on the short end and cut in half on the long end.

Step 9: Carefully brush the garlic butter over the dough, sprinkle with flaky salt and chopped fresh or dried herbs.

Step 10: Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F until lightly golden brown. Brush with additional butter if desired and serve immediately.
