It’s so nice to be able to make the restaurant food we enjoy at home.

For the dough:

  • 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons warm water
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 3/4 teaspoons salt
  • 16 ounces (about 3 1/3 to 3 1/2 cups) bread flour

For the topping:

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  1. In the bowl of a standing mixer, combine the water, yeast, sugar, salt, and melted butter.
  2. Attach the dough hook to the mixer and begin to gradually add the flour on low speed.
  3. Increase speed to medium and knead the dough for about 7 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
  4. Remove the dough, oil bowl, replace dough, turn over, and cover with plastic wrap. Let rest in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
  5. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  6. Divide the dough into 16 equal portions (use a scale).
  7. Roll each piece of dough into a 7-inch log.
  8. Place the dough logs on nonstick baking mat or parchment-lined baking sheets, cover, and let rise in a warm place, until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  9. Bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
  10. Remove from oven and immediately brush with melted butter.
  11. Combine the salt and garlic powder and sprinkle evenly over breadsticks. Serve warm.
