This is one of my very best recipes. These breadsticks can be made from scratch in about 40 minutes, from start to finish. They are light and delicious with any kind of Italian dish, or with soup. This recipe makes one cookie sheet, or about 36 small 2×5 inch breadsticks. It works great in a Kitchen Aid. If you are going to use a Bosch you’ll need to double the recipe.
Let me show you how to make it happen…
1. Mix the water, sugar and yeast together in a measuring cup or in the bottom of your mixer. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
2. Add the salt and the flour, one cup at a time, until it is well incorporated. Mix on high for 5 minutes. Let the dough rest for 5 minutes.
3. Melt the butter and pour half of it into a jelly roll pan (large cookie sheet).
4. Place the dough in the center of the pan. Let it sit for 2 or 3 minutes. Letting the dough rest makes it MUCH easier to shape.
5. Spread the dough out flat onto the pan until it reaches all of the edges. Doing all of the spreading and cutting of these bread sticks, in the pan makes cleaning up your counter so much easier!
6. Pour the other half of the butter onto the dough. Spread it around with your hands. Sprinkle the Johnny’s Garlic Seasoning all over the dough, and then the Parmesan cheese.
7. With a pizza cutter cut the dough into three rows lengthwise, and then into about 12 little height wise rows.
8. Put the pan into a 170 degree oven for about 7-10 minutes. The breadsticks should rise about 1 inch.
9. Turn you oven up to 350 and bake for about 12 minutes, or until golden brown.
10. When they come out of the oven let them sit and rest again for about 5 minutes. Then redefine your cutting lines with the pizza cutter.
11. I use a pair of cooking scissors to cut the edges where the pizza cutter can’t reach.
These Quick and Easy Breadsticks go wonderfully with
That’s it! They are wonderful. I have played around with a variety of things that can be put on the top. I will post those recipes in the days to come! Johnny’s Garlic Spread seasoning is one in a million. I buy it at Costco, and keep several in my long term food storage. It’s really great to have on hand. ENJOY!

Okay, what is Johnny’s garlic seasoning (never heard of it) and I don’t own a pizza cutter. And I do own almost every gadget. This is supposed to be the very easiest yeast thing? I want to try…..but…..
Joyce,
Johnny’s Garlic Seasoning can be found at Costco. If you can’t find it you can easily substitute a bit of Italian Seasoning and Garlic Powder mixed together. Good luck!

I have tried many breadstick recipes and this is by far the best! The only one I make since I found it. However, it might be nice if you could remove the word $&@* by butter in the ingredient list. I don’t see why that is necessary – I cook with my kids and this is the first time I have ever encountered a recipe written like that. Not very classy.
Seriously? You’re complaining over the word ‘crap’? Out of all the other words she could have used in the world that are far more colourful… you’re complaining about that one?
The reason she put “not that nasty margarine crap” is the reason why I love this writer all the more. She seems more ‘real’ and down to earth. Not uptight.
Also upon looking on the other recipes on this site I’m going to be trying a LOT … and I won’t be using any of this margarine crap either!
Holly – It was something my children noticed while we baking these and I thought it was kind of sad that I had to explain to them why that word would be used in a recipe! It was kind of inexplicable.
I never knew that using colorful words(even the dull ones) = down to earth.
If you want to call me uptight, so be it. I do know that most children would be sent to the principal for saying it, so I’m not alone in considering it crude. I also thought with the author being a mormon, that they were not supposed to use profanity.

Im sorry. Is this judgement of the writer necessary? What business is it of yours that she uses the word crap? What business is it of yours that she is a mormon? I think that since you are so sensitive and that you want to shelter your children (which is totally your business) that maybe you should take a look on the pages before letting your kids see. ITS THE INTERNET!! That kind of stuff and MUCH WORSE is EVERYWHERE. Grow up and stop judging others.
On a separate note…I am making these currently…and the smell SOOOO AMAZING!
Sara. Being Mormon – It is something the writer says is important to her on her “about me”. U tell me to grow up and stop judging others and then do the exact same thing to me! So maybe you should grow up too??? Don’t call it a family friendly website if you are going to swear in your recipes. My kids and I found and read it at the same time. Didn’t know I had to censor recipes on a “family friendly” site!
Articles like this really grease the shafts of kndowelge.
These are super good. Mine had to cook a bit longer, but no big deal. I do NOT own a stand-mixer and just kneaded by hand. Worked fine. My only complaint is now my hubby and I need to eat an entire pan – Darn! ๐
Deb, Nobody tried to offend you. We were just a little surprised. I didn’t know that anybody considered the word crap a swearword, even if they didn’t like using it themselves. I don’t think it needs to be taken off the recipe and I hate swearing.
Ps. Really good recipe! Thanks for sharing!
Excellent recipe! I love how easy these recipes are and how the food turns out perfect. I’ve tried two bread recipes here and you are spot on with directions. I served the breadsticks to dinner guests with lasagna. So delicious. I’m going to have to look for the recommended seasoning the next time I’m at Costco. But, since I didn’t have it I substituted garlic salt and some parsley.
