Breadsticks

Here is the recipe for quick, simple, buttery, crunchy bread sticks. I made them to go along with my home made veggie pizza.

Ingredients

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
1 tablespoon oil
3 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 cup milk
1.5 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon Italian spices
1/2 teaspoon salt


Method
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Mix all of the above ingredients in a large bowl into a soft dough (without any lumps). You can either roll out the dough on a greased pan, bake the dough and then cut breadsticks into pieces of desired size (or) you can choose to roll them into desired shapes / sizes and then bake it.

Bake the dough at 400 degrees F for about 20 mins.

Note: I was expecting breadsticks to be soft, but they turned out to be crunchy.  I am planning to add more butter next time (I guess I messed up with the quantity of butter (1 tbsp) as I was trying breadsticks with just 1/2 cup of flour). Nevertheless, they tasted so good with warm marinara sauce on the side.
