2 1/4 teaspoons yeast
1 cup lukewarm water
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 Tablespoons melted butter
Garlic Salt, Parmesan Cheese, Pizza Spice, Sesame seeds, etc. for topping sticks.
Directions:
Add the yeast to a mixing bowl and add the water. Stir to combine, and let it rest for five minutes.
Add the flour, salt and oil to the yeast/water mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon until well-combined, and then turn out onto a counter that has been dusted lightly with flour.
Knead the dough just until it comes together and isn’t sticky. Add more flour if necessary- but I didn’t knead for any more than a minute.
Sprinkle your counter with flour, set the doughball onto the flour, and then cover the ball with an inverted mixing bowl. (Or use plastic wrap.) Walk away for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375ºF and spray an 18 x 10 baking sheet with cooking spray. Also, gather your melted butter and sprinkling supplies.
When 20 minutes is up, gently stretch and shape the dough into a rectangle approximately 8 inches wide by about 15 inches long. Use a pizza wheel to cut your dough into about 15 strips. Gently lift the strips one by one and set them on the baking sheet. The strips will stretch a bit during the moving process- this is good, you want this.
Brush the tops of the sticks well with the melted butter and add whatever sprinklin’s your heart desires.
Bake in a 375ºF oven for 20 minutes.
