Why Einkorn?
Einkorn is an ancient grain that has gained popularity in modern baking for its unique qualities and health benefits. This ancient grain offers a distinct flavor and texture that can elevate your baking creations.
One of the remarkable characteristics of Einkorn is that it has a lower gluten content and a different kind of gluten compared to modern wheat varieties. This makes it a favorable choice for people with gluten sensitivities, or those seeking to reduce their gluten intake. So, some individuals who aren’t able to eat other baked goods because of the gluten in them might be able to enjoy these Einkorn Cinnamon Breadsticks.
In our Einkorn Cinnamon Breadsticks recipe, the Einkorn flour contributes to a tender and slightly denser texture, creating a delightful chewiness in each bite. Moreover, Einkorn flour adds a rich and nutty flavor profile to the breadsticks, enhancing their overall taste. The combination of Einkorn flour with the warm and aromatic cinnamon creates a delightful harmony of flavors that will captivate your palate. Additionally, the higher protein content in Einkorn flour adds a nourishing element to the breadsticks, making them a wholesome treat that you can enjoy with a little less guilt.

Adjust the Sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter flavor, increase the amount of brown sugar or cinnamon in the filling.

You can also use a dark brown sugar or a light brown sugar to adjust the level of that hint of molasses flavor brown sugar brings.
Add Nuts or Raisins: For additional texture and flavor, consider incorporating chopped nuts, such as walnuts or pecans, or sprinkle in a handful of raisins into the filling. These additions provide a delightful contrast and an extra burst of taste.
Make Ahead and Freeze: These breadsticks can be prepared in advance and frozen for later enjoyment. After baking, allow them to cool completely, then store them in an airtight container or freezer bag. When ready to serve, thaw at room temperature and warm them up in the oven for a few minutes.
Experiment with Shape and Size: While the traditional breadstick shape is long and slender, feel free to get creative with different shapes and sizes. You can roll the dough into smaller portions for bite-sized treats or even shape it into knots or twists for a unique presentation.
Get Creative with Spices: While cinnamon is the classic choice for these breadsticks, don’t be afraid to explore other spice combinations. Consider incorporating a pinch of nutmeg, cardamom, or ginger for an exciting twist on the flavor profile.
Experiment with Glazes: Elevate the presentation and flavor profile by changing the glaze. Explore options like lemon, orange, cream cheese, or brown sugar glazes to add a tangy or aromatic twist.

Einkorn Cinnamon Breadsticks
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ Cups Water Lukewarm (95-110℉)
- 1 Tbsp Active Dry Yeast
- 3 Tbsp Sugar
- 2 Tbsp Avocado Oil
- 1 tsp Salt
- 4 ½ Cups Organic All-Purpose Einkorn Flour

- ½ Cup Brown Sugar
- 2 tsp Cinnamon
For the Vanilla Glaze
- 1 Cup Powdered Sugar
- 2 Tbsp Milk
- â…“ tsp Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉.
- In a stand mixer bowl, add the warm water, yeast, and sugar. Allow to sit for about 5 minutes, or until bubbly.

- Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and roll out into a rectangle that is about ⅓"-½" thick. Brush with melted butter, then sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon over the top.
- Cut into 1" strips and twist the breadsticks. Lay on a greased cookie sheet, then sprinkle again with ground cinnamon.
- Let sit for 10 more minutes or until double. (* See Notes)
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-18 minutes, or until golden.
- While the Einkorn Cinnamon Breadsticks are baking, combine the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla in a small bowl.
- Once the breadsticks have baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes. Drizzle the glaze over the warm breadsticks.Â
- Serve immediately or store in a freezer bag or another airtight container.
