Instructions: Combine yeast and warm water in a 2-cup measuring cup; let stand for 5 minutes

Combine yeast mixture, 2 cups flour, milk powder, and next 3 ingredients in a large mixing bowl; beat at medium speed of an electric mixer until well blended. Gradually stir in enough of the remaining 3/4 cup flour to make
a soft dough. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon flour evenly over work surface. Turn dough out onto floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic (about 5 minutes). Place dough in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat top. Cover, and let rise in a warm place (in the winter I use an electric
heating pad), 30 minutes or until bulk doubles.

Punch dough down. Divide dough into 20 equal portions. Roll each portion of
dough into a 14 inch rope. Place ropes, 2 inches apart, on baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Cover and let rise in a warm place, free from drafts, 20 minutes.

Combine egg white and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl; brush egg white mixture evenly over breadsticks. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until breadsticks are golden.

Yield: 20 breadsticks 82 calories each.
