Ingredients

1 cup warm water (110°F)
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 egg (for egg wash)
Garlic powder (optional, for flavor)
Parmesan cheese (optional, for topping)

Instructions

Activate Yeast: In a bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
Make Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Shape Bones: Divide the dough into small pieces and shape each piece into a bone form. To do this, roll out two smaller pieces for the ends and one larger piece for the center, then pinch them together.
Prepare for Baking: Place the shaped breadsticks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with garlic powder and Parmesan cheese if desired.
Bake: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Serve: Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your spooky Skeleton Bone Breadsticks!
