Yes, I’m totally “guilty” of craving bread even after years of eating paleo. But hey, it’s actually pretty simple to make things like dinner rolls, pizza crust, and now breadsticks that are totally grain free!
This paleo breadsticks recipe is similar to both my pizza crust and dinner rolls. I tweaked it to add a bit more flavor and also make a larger batch – they will go fast! Whether you make them as a snack or to go along with a meal, they’re bound to become a favorite with the first bite.
What You Need to Make Paleo Breadsticks
Even though these are simple to make, I did use three different flours. The combination I used gives you great texture after baking and also makes the dough easier to work with. Here’s everything you need to make the breadsticks:
Blanched Almond FlourCoconut FlourTapioca FlourBaking PowderBaking SodaGarlic PowderOnion PowderItalian SeasoningWaterAvocado oil or olive oilApple cider vinegarFresh GarlicFresh Parsley
If you want to make your own paleo friendly baking powder to use in this recipe, simply mix 2 teaspoons of cream of tartar with 1 teaspoon of baking soda. Use just the amount of this mixture called for in the recipe.
How To Make Paleo Breadsticks
The process is easier than you might think! First, you mix together the dry ingredients in a large bowl, with the exception of 1/4 cup of coconut flour.
Then, stir all in the wet ingredients, including the eggs, to form a sticky dough. At this point, you’ll stir in the remaining coconut flour and allow the dough to sit for about 10 minutes to fully absorb all the flour. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 400° F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Sprinkle tapioca flour over the parchment, then place the dough in a ball on top. If it’s still very sticky, chill it for about 5 minutes. At that point, you should be able to spread it out gently with the help of more tapioca flour.
Spread the dough out into a large rectangle, bake 12 minutes, then brush with ghee or olive oil and sprinkle with garlic. Continue to bake about 4 more minutes. Once done and slightly cooled, cut the rectangle into breadsticks, dip, and devour!
Tips for Working with the Dough
The dough can be a bit sticky even after chilling. It’s fine to sprinkle the dough with tapioca flour – it won’t dry out this way. Don’t try adding more almond or coconut flour though, since that with negatively affect the texture of the breadsticks after baking.
I find it’s easiest to spread the dough out using the heel of my hand. Quick movements work best, so you don’t give the dough a chance to stick this way. If all else fails, you can very lightly wet your hands as you spread out the dough – just make sure not to get it too wet.
I hope you’re ready for seriously delicious, chewy paleo breadsticks! Grab a bowl (just one bowl!) and all your ingredients because it’s time to start – let’s go!
