Sun Dried Tomato Breadsticks
2 C. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. yeast
1 tsp. honey
1 tsp. olive oil
2/3 C. hot water
6 sun-dried tomato halves, reconstituted according to package directions
1 T. skim milk
2 tsp. poppy seeds
Drain and chop sun dried tomatoes; set aside. Place the flour, salt and yeast in a food processor bowl. With processor running, add honey and olive oil, and gradually pour in the water. Stop adding water as soon as the dough starts to stick together. Process for another minute. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and knead 3 or 4 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Knead in the chopped tomato pieces. Form dough into a ball and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Place in a bowl and let sit for 5 minutes. Preheat oven to 300*F. Divide dough into 16 pieces. Roll each piece into an 11 inch long stick. Place each stick on a baking pan which has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Let rise for 15 minutes. Brush dough sticks with milk and sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until done and lightly golden brown. Place on a wire rack to cool.
