Servings 20 Breadsticks

Equipment

  • standing mixer
  • baking tray

Ingredients

  • 190 g bread flour
  • 1/2 tsp dried yeast
  • 100 g lukewarm water
  • 30 g olive oil (extra virgin)
  • 15 g butter (melted, cooled)
  • pinch of salt
  • sea salt, sesame seeds, parmesan shavings (toppings)

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients (apart from toppings) into a bowl of your standing mixer and knead a nice play dough like dough. Shape it into a ball, place it back in the bowl, cover with cling film or dump kitchen towel and let it rise for about 1,5 hours or until doubled in size.
  • Once your dough has risen, separate it into chunks and roll little snakes. You can make them long and then cut them up for separate breadsticks or you can make more smaller balls and roll them into separate breadsticks, the choice is yours. If you will be doing them one by one I would encourage you to weight your balls so you get same size breadsticks.
  • Pre-heat you oven to 180ºC. Once you have finished shaping your breadsticks and pace them onto your baking tray lined with baking paper, spray your breadsticks with some water and sprinkle toppings of your choice. You can also leave them as they are, no toppings necessary. Bake them in your pre-heated oven for about 15 mins. The longer you bake them the more crunchy they will be.
