These low-fat breadsticks are easy to make and simply delicious. Plus, they complement a variety of menus, from pasta and chicken to soup and salad. If you’d like to experiment, try other herbs, such as thyme or sage, instead of or in addition to the rosemary.
Ingredients:
- 2/3 cup reduced-fat (2%) milk
- ¼ cup finely chopped fresh chives
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary or 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- ¾ cup whole wheat flour
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- Nonstick cooking spray
Directions:
- Combine milk, chives, baking powder, rosemary, salt and pepper in large bowl; mix well. Stir in flours, 1/2 cup at a time, until blended. Turn onto floured surface and knead dough about 5 minutes or until smooth and elastic, adding more flour if dough is sticky. Let stand 30 minutes at room temperature.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray baking sheet with cooking spray. Divide dough into 12 balls, about 1-1/4 ounces each. Roll each ball into long thin rope; place on prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray breadsticks with cooking spray. Bake about 12 minutes or until bottoms are golden brown. Turn breadsticks over; bake about 10 minutes more or until golden brown. Makes 12 servings.
