Garlic Bread Sticks – Vegan, Sugar free

Bread sticks / grissini / grissini sticks are long and thin size stick prepared from bread dough. The size can be varied from pencil thin shape to baguettes. These are originated in Italy which can be easily rolled in hands. The typical ingredients of bread stick include flour, water, salt, oil or fat and a rising agent. Also these days there are a lot of variation in the dough of the bread sticks. The dough simply roll out into flat, then cut into thin strips and finally shaped into bread sticks of cylindrical shapes. After that those are topped with any flavors like garlic, herbs, seeds or even with caramelized onions and lastly baked.

Today I have prepared some bread sticks flavored with garlic and oregano. Also to keep the healthy factor in the bread sticks, I have used whole wheat flour. One can surely use all purpose flour also instead of wheat flour. Nothing is tricky in this preparation. One can surely make this with very easy as well quickly. These bread sticks are sugar free too as the sweet factor here comes from maple syrup.

Use of olive oil also makes these sticks completely Vegan. Just along with some hot soup, these are matched perfect options. Even one can serve these crunchy sticks along with some tossed salad, spaghetti etc. Instead of buying the ready made ones from the supermarkets, one can make the bread sticks at home in a large batch and store in an air tight container, but i will recommend to finish up within a week. Otherwise the crunchiness slightly decreases over than that. These are always a hit for kids crunchy snack, breakfast with some soup etc. So do try !
