Ingredients
Scale:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1/4 cup olive oil or melted butter
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Pour in the milk and olive oil (or melted butter). Mix until a soft dough forms.
On a floured surface, gently knead the dough for about 30 seconds until it’s smooth.
Roll the dough into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick and slice it into strips to form individual breadsticks.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the breadsticks on it.
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, and dried Italian herbs, then brush this mixture over each breadstick.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of each breadstick.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the breadsticks are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Once baked, brush with any remaining garlic butter and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
