This is the first time I'd attempted to bake breadsticks and this was a pretty good recipe. I loved the onion dough - very delicious! I followed the recipe to a T but this did not exactly come out of the oven soft. They were not burnt, but were most like Crunch Onion Breadsticks. They were still tasty, but not as soft and chewy as I had hoped for. I made sesame seed breadsticks, poppy seed breadsticks, a mix of poppy and sesame seed, as well as garlic parmesan breadticks. The garlic parmesan were delicious (but still not so soft.) I will try these again to try to get softer sticks. Worth a try!
