Parmesan, Roasted Garlic, and Basil Breadsticks
I wanted to make some breadsticks to serve with the Italian Meatball Soup and Italian salad that I made for dinner. I found a recipe on Allrecipes that looked easy and had great reviews. I adapted the recipe a bit by using a head of roasted garlic instead of garlic powder. The breadsticks were simple to make and turned out really soft and delicious–perfect for dipping into our soup.
Parmesan, Roasted Garlic, and Basil Breadsticks
Ingredients:
- 1 head of roasted garlic (click here for recipe)
- 1â…›cups of warm water
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 tbsp Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1½ tsp salt
- 2 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
- 3 cups of flour
- 2 tsp active dry yeast
- 1 tbsp butter
How to Make Parmesan, Roasted Garlic, and Basil Breadsticks:
Roast the garlic, then let it cool. Once the garlic is cool, remove each clove from the peel and chop.
Place all dough ingredients (through yeast) in the bread machine in the order listed.
Add the yeast to a well in the center of the flour. Select the dough cycle and press the start button.
Once the bread machine stops (it was one and a half hours on my machine).
Remove the pan from the bread machine and pour the dough onto a well-floured surface.
Divide the dough into 20 small balls or 10 larger balls.
Roll each ball into a rope, then place it on a baking sheet lined with a Silpat mat that has been coated with olive oil cooking spray.
Cover and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about 40 minutes).
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Coat the breadsticks with melted butter, then place them in the oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until golden brown.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Hi! My name is Irene, I'm from Moscow! I'm so happy I've found your blog! It's amazing! I really LOVE it! I'm looking forward to try one of your recipes!!!
Hi! These sound amazing, but I do not have a bread machine, do you have instructions on how to make it without one? Thanks!
Can you tell me what temperature the oven should be? It doesn’t say in the recipe. Thank you.
Thanks for letting me know! I have corrected the recipe – the temperature is 375 degrees.
Cheers,
Pam
