Easy breadsticks that are done in one hour – perfect for a weeknight!
Photo Updated April 2014
I have been really getting into making more of my own bread lately. I used to be scared of yeast breads, but I am learning that it is really not as intimidating as I once thought it was to make delicious yeast bread at home.
These breadsticks are not only extremely delicious, but they are super easy as well. In fact, they are easy enough to make on a weeknight while you whip up dinner!! That’s my kind of bread!

- 1 ½ cups warm water
- 1 tablespoon instant yeast
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 3 ½ cups flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted (for the baking sheet)
- garlic salt, herbs/spices of your choice, and/or parmesan cheese
- Combine the water, yeast, sugar, flour and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Mix and knead for three minutes. Let the dough rest 10 minutes.
- Heat the oven to 375F.
- Spread the melted butter on a 11x17-inch baking sheet. Roll the dough out to ¼ to ½-inch thickness, then cut into strips with a pizza cutter. If desired, twist slightly. Place about ½-inch apart on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with garlic salt, herbs and/or parmesan cheese. Cover with plastic wrap that has been sprayed with cooking spray and let rise for 30 minutes.
- Remove the plastic wrap and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.

They look great! We will have to try this recipe!
Oo, those do look ‘divine’! Soo fluffy, mmMmmM, I want one (or a few!)!
I have wanted to start making more bread myself and this looks like a good recipe to start with!
Mmm so tasty looking!
Homemade bread is my weakness. I could eat every one of these, they look so good!
I have been bread baker for years. Even spent a year as head baker for an upscale market. There is just something about kneading dough….However, I found out a little over a month ago that I have a big problem with gluten. I was sick a lot when I was doing the stint as head baker. Now I know why….I am in the process of altering my life and adjusting recipes. I am confident that I will be baking again very soon. I just discovered you through a link and I am so happy I did!!!
Glad to hear that you’ve overcome your yeast-fear 🙂 I had the same year till I started making my own breads a few years ago and now revel in making my own breads from scratch 🙂 Congratulations, and may I just say that these lovely breadsticks do indeed look divine!
I only tried making bread for the first time a couple of weeks ago. It smelt funny. And it was heavy and crumbly. These breadsticks look amazing! I’m bookmarking! Thanks!
Divine is definitely the right word here! These breadsticks look amazing!
