Ready to Bake Breadsticks
Recipe from World
Wide Recipes.com and
Bobbi Jo
I sometimes like to have fresh rolls or soft bread sticks for
breakfast, but I don't like getting up in the wee hours in order
to get them prepared in time for breakfast. Also, it is nice
to serve fresh bread sticks at dinner parties. But that is difficult
with all the other preparation that is required. So I was thrilled
when I was given the instructions for making ready-to-bake bread
sticks. Now I have fresh bread sticks for breakfast often.
Use your favorite bread recipe - I usually use one that
has half whole wheat flour and half unbleached flour. Will send
it if anyone wants it.
After first rise, shape dough into bread sticks. (I found that
I usually get 4 bread sticks about 8" long from each cup of
flour in the recipe.) Place on baking sheet and cover. Let rise
until doubled in size. Bake at 250 degrees F. for 15 to 20 minutes
until "set" but not brown. Let bread sticks cool on a rack.
If using in the next day or two, place in plastic bag when cool.
If you have more than you plan to bake soon, seal the extras
in a plastic bag and freeze. Bake the room temperature bread
sticks at 400 degrees F. for 8 to 10 minutes. Bake the frozen
bread sticks at 350 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes until browned.
Brush bread sticks with melted butter when you take them out
of the oven. To make them taste like the Olive Garden bread
sticks, brush with garlic butter.
