Equipment

Large baking Sheet

Ingredients

100 g sourdough discard 100% hydration
55 g strong bread flour
10 ml olive oil
1 tablespoon runny honey
3 tablespoon mixed seeds smalled seeds stick better
coarse sea salt

Instructions

Mix together sourdough starter, oil, honey and flour. Knead for approx 5 minutes until the dough is less sticky and comes into a cohesive ball of dough.
Place the dough into a greased bowl and place somewhere warm to prove for 3-4 hours. The dough should rise by about a third.
When the dough is ready, preheat the oven to 140°C Fan. Line a large baking sheet with parchment.
Tip the dough onto a well-floured surface and roll it out to a rectangle about 4mm thick. Flour the surface of the dough as required to make sure the rolling pin doesn't stick.
Put a tablespoon of olive oil in a small bowl and get a pastry brush ready. Spread the seeds on a large plate.
Cut the rolled out dough into long thin (approx 1cm) strips. Then twist them slightly to get a corkscrew look, if you like. Carefully lift the strips onto a plate with seed and brush with olive oil. Then roll in the seeds to cover. You may want to press the seeds down slightly for them to stick.
Transfer onto a lined baking sheet. Once all the breadsticks are seeded, sprinkle them with coarse sea salt and place in a preheated oven, on a lower shelf, to bake for 30-35 minutes. Cooking time will depend on how thick your sticks are. You want them to dry out completely, and have a good snap, but don't let them burn.
Perfect for snacking or dipping into hummus!
