Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup self-rising flour
Optional Toppings
- Olive oil (for brushing or spraying)
- Salt (to taste)
- Garlic powder (to taste)
- Italian seasoning (to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it reaches the right temperature while you prepare the dough.
- Blend the cottage cheese: Using an immersion blender, traditional blender, or food processor, blend the cottage cheese until it becomes smooth and creamy, which will help create a light dough.
- Mix the dough: Transfer the blended cottage cheese into a mixing bowl. Gradually add the self-rising flour, stirring with a large spoon until it forms a cohesive dough.
- Shape the breadsticks: Divide the dough and roll each portion into a log shape. Place each breadstick on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
- Optional seasoning and oil: If desired, lightly brush or spray the breadsticks with olive oil and sprinkle with your favorite seasonings such as salt, garlic powder, or Italian seasoning to enhance flavor.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the breadsticks turn golden brown and firm to the touch.
Notes
- You can use any seasoning of your choice if you prefer different flavors.
- Make sure the cottage cheese is well blended to avoid lumps in the dough.
- These breadsticks are best enjoyed fresh and warm out of the oven but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- Self-rising flour contains baking powder and salt, so adjust seasoning accordingly if using all-purpose flour.
