- Knead the dough either with the dough hook attachment or by hand on a lightly floured surface for about 6-8 minutes until it's smooth and elastic.
- Lightly coat a large bowl with oil and place the dough ball in it, turning to coat the dough with oil.Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a damp towel and set it in a warm place to rise for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Once the dough has risen, punch it down and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface.Divide the dough into 12-15 even pieces.Shape each dough piece into rounds like dinner rolls, then roll and stretch them along the work surface into breadsticks, about 6 to 8 inches in length.
- Place the breadsticks on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one to allow for expansion.
- Let the breadsticks rise for 15-20 minutes while preparing the garlic butter mixture.
