- 3 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of salt

Instructions
-
Sprinkle yeast over warm milk then sprinkle sugar over yeast in electric mixer bowl. Let proof for 3-4 minutes.

With mixer on low speed, mix in 1 cup of the flour, olive oil, and salt. Increase speed to medium and beat until smooth. Beat in the remaining flour and mix just until incorporated.

Sprinkle work surface with extra flour. Punch down dough and transfer it to the work surface, kneading it by hand for 3-5 minutes, or until dough is soft and workable.
-
Divide dough into 16 equal pieces (about 2-ounces each). Roll each piece into a ball then roll between the palms of your hands into 7-inch long sticks.
-
Place sticks on the baking sheet, placing them 2-inches apart. Cover and let rise for 15 minutes.
