I love to experiment with bread recipes. This one is a favorite of my children and grandchildren. The soft, chewy breadsticks are delicious with a casserole or hearty bowl of soup.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1-1/2 cups warm water (110° to 115°), divided

2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup rye flour
1 to 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Directions
