3teaspoonskosher salt, divided
⅓cup + 2 tablespoonsvegetable oil, divided
butter-flavored nonstick cooking spray
¼cuppowdered Parmesan cheese (from can or jar)
2tablespoonsgarlic powder
1tablespoononion powder

Instructions
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the yeast, dry milk, sugar, and warm water. Mix on low speed until combined, then let rest for 10 minutes, or until foamy. Replace the paddle with the dough hook. Add flour, 1 teaspoon of the salt and 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil. Knead on medium speed for 5 to 8 minutes, until a tacky, smooth ball of dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface, pressing and stretching into a 9 x 13-inch rectangle. Pour the remaining 1/3 cup vegetable oil into a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Place the dough on top, pressing and stretching it until the dough fills the dish. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature 1 to 1 1/2 hours, until doubled in size.
Preheat oven to 475° F.
Remove plastic wrap from dough and using a bench scraper, cut the dough in the baking dish into 13 or 14 equal sticks, each about 1 inch wide and 9 inches long. Generously spray the tops with cooking spray.
In a small bowl, combine the Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, basil, pepper and remaining 2 teaspoons salt. Sprinkle evenly over the dough sticks and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until puffed up and brown.
Using a large spatula, transfer the dipping sticks to a wire rack and let cool 10 minutes. Separate the sticks, transfer to a platter and serve with warmed marinara sauce.
