Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp active dry yeast

  • 1 ½ cups of warm water

  • 2 tsp white sugar

  • 1 tsp sea salt

  • ½- 1 cup of radish leaf pesto (recipe here

  • 2-4 tbsp of plant milk for brushing

Instructions

  1. While the yeast is resting mix the flour, salt and sugar in a large mixing bowl or stand mixer.  Mix well.

  2. After the 10 minutes has elapsed and the yeast is frothy, make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add the water and yeast.

  3. Stir well with a wooden spoon or the hook attachment on your stand mixer until a dough has formed.  Cover with a cloth and let rise for 30- 45 minutes. It should double in size.

  4. Preheat oven to 375F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  5. One proofed roll the dough on a floured surface into a large rectangle about ½ inch thick.  Cut smaller rectangles into the desired size of your breadsticks. A pizza cutter is a useful tool for this.

  6. Spread the pesto evenly into the center of each individual rectangle. Roll each rectangle into a cylinder.  Cut in half lengthwise. Pinch one end together and twist the bread by bringing the left piece over the right and continuing until you reach the end.  Pinch the end together.

  7. Using a pastry brush, brush the outside of the twist breads with plant milk. Place on baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes (depending on the size of your bread) or until golden brown on the outside.
