Ingredients
* 1 package dry instant yeast
* 1 cup warm water (110°) [Split into two 1/2 cups]
* 2 Tablespoons sugar
* 1/4 cup butter (melted)
* 2½ to 3 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 Tsp of Salt
~Garlic Seasoning~
½ cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1½ teaspoons garlic powder, or to taste
½ teaspoon oregano
Preparation
~Mixing Dough~
Combine ½ cup warm water, 2 Tbsp sugar and 1 packet instant dry yeast and whisk, set aside. Melt 4 Tbsp of butter and set aside to cool. Once the yeast mixture is foamy, add it to a stand mixer bowl with ½ cup of water and 1½ cups of flour. Stir it with your stand mixer with the paddle attachment. Once the dough is a smooth batter, add in the cooled melted butter, teaspoon of salt and about 1 cup of flour. Continue to mix on low speed until a soft, sticky dough is formed. Switch to the dough hook. Add a little remaining flour (½ cup) and knead with the dough hook, adding more flour until dough is smooth and elastic. Form the dough into a smooth ball. Butter a large bowl and transfer the dough into the bowl. Turn the dough all over, so the dough is covered with butter on all sides. Cover with plastic wrap or a clean towel and set in a warm spot. This will take about 1 hour to 1½ hour.
~Shaping~
Once dough has doubled in size, punch down and divide into 12 pieces. Let rest for 10 minutes. Then roll into an 8-10 inch rope. Place them on a parchment covered cookie sheet. Cover with plastic wrap or clean towel and set in a warm place until doubled in size for about 30 minutes to an hour.
