About this recipe
Cheesy Garlic Breadsticks Thermomix TM7 recipes bring the aroma of an Italian bakery straight into your kitchen. These golden fingers start with strong bread flour, dried instant yeast and a touch of honey, kneaded by the TM7 into a smooth, elastic dough that rises beautifully. Garlic cloves and fresh curly parsley are chopped in seconds, while Parmesan and Cheddar are grated evenly so every breadstick carries a savoury, molten cheese layer. Searching for an easy party snack or a quick side for a weeknight dinner? This all-in-one kitchen machine handles the kneading, grating and mixing without flour-covered worktops. Serve the breadsticks warm with a tomato dip at a drinks party, pack them into lunchboxes, or enjoy them alongside soup. With the Thermomix TM7 doing the heavy work, even novice bakers achieve a crisp crust and fluffy interior every single time.
Preparation tips
- Tip 1: Let the shaped breadsticks prove on a tray covered with a damp tea towel until they look puffy, which gives a lighter crumb and a crust that blisters attractively in the oven.
- Tip 2: For a deeper flavour, brush the warm breadsticks with olive oil infused with the chopped garlic and parsley just after baking, so the aroma blooms without burning the garlic.
- Tip 3: Grate the Parmesan and Cheddar finely and mix half into the dough itself; keeping the rest on top creates cheese pull and a golden, crisp edge children especially love.
Recipe variations
- Lactose-free version: replace the Cheddar and Parmesan with matured lactose-free hard cheese and brush the sticks with olive oil instead of butter for equally crisp, savoury breadsticks.
- Festive variant: twist strips of dough with the garlic oil and sprinkle with grated Parmesan and cracked black pepper before baking, creating elegant breadstick twists for a drinks party.
