No Yeast Whole-Wheat Garlic Breadsticks

Garlic bread is a classic side dish which was originated in Italy. This bread has a topping of garlic, some herbs and butter or olive oil and at times even clarified butter is used. Eating garlic can help us detoxify the heavy metals in our body and it also helps in improving our bone health. This bread is usually roasted or toasted and tends to bring out the flavor of garlic. I really love domino’s garlic breadsticks, so I decided to make these at home.

I gathered all the ingredients. I had whole wheat flour, garlic, mixed herbs and the other ingredients.

But when I finally started working on the recipe, I realised that I didn’t have yeast. After thinking for a minute or two, I decided to experiment with a recipe without using yeast.
