Whole Wheat Bread Sticks

Whole Wheat Bread Sticks

1 ½ cups warm water

1 Tablespoon Yeast

2 Tablespoons Honey

2 teaspoons Sea Salt

3 cups Whole Wheat Flour

Mix all ingredients except Flour. Allow mix to set and dissolve. (It just takes 3 or 4 minutes) Add 1 ½ cups flour to mixture mix till smooth and elasticy. Add remaining 1 ½ cups flour stirring with wooden spoon. If dough is really sticky add more flour so it can be handled. Flour counter and knead for 3 to 5 minutes. Place in oiled bowl and allow to raise for 10 minutes. (May skip this step if in a hurry) Flour counter roll dough out to a rectangle ½ inch thick. Cut dough into 1 inch strips. (I like to use a pizza cutter to cut the dough) Pick up a strip by each end and quickly dip in a bowl of extra virgin olive oil. Fold strip in half and twist place on a cookie sheet. We like to sprinkle the bread sticks with garlic salt, oregano, basil, or any favorite herbs. I bet they would also be good sprinkled with sesame seeds but we haven’t tried that yet. Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes.  

Note:  You can also use the Best Yet Whole Wheat Bread dough and then follow the rolling out and seasoning instructions of this recipe!  I have done both, both are Tasty!
