Breadsticks

Agree-way too much water. 1/2 c with yeast was plenty. I re-made it (I’m still a beginner bread maker) because I initially forgot to add the rest of the water, then did what others did, added over a cup of flour to get it workable. However, It was light, sweet and garlicky delicious!

Not enough flour to start. You’ll need about a cup more.

This dough was way too wet. I had to add flour to be able to handle it at all. I am used to making bread, but these proportions were not right. Mediocre recipe.

Definitely add less sugar- it ended up tasting like a garlic butter donut and I wasn’t a fan. Without the garlic butter, it could be a decent sweet bread for other things, but it’s not suited to dip in soup and whatnot. I also had to add much more flour than the recipe said, almost a full cup. Overall it was okay I guess, but next time I’ll look for a different recipe.

Excellent just like olive gardens. I did as others stated and cut the sugar down to 1 teaspoon in the yeast. Put the remaining in the flour mix.

The breadsticks turned out good; however, I had to add over a cup of flour. The recipe called for 2 1/4 cups of flour and after beating it for a considerable time, it was still very thin. Did I do something wrong to make it this way?

I followed other reviewers’ advice and used less sugar. Be prepared to add quite a bit of additional flour when making these. They were soft and looked just like the breadsticks at Olive Garden.

Omit the sugar and only put in 2 tablespoons when you are proofing the yeast . 3 cups of flour and kneed for 8 minutes. After they are cooked brush on the butter and garlic salt (to taste – I used about 1/2 tsp) then sprinkle on the Parmesan and bake for an additional minute. I made it for my son, daughter and shared it with their socially distanced friends and they were all gone in a heartbeat. I should’ve doubled the recipe when sharing with 7 people.

I bake a lot and this is the best bread stick dough I have ever used. All of the family loved it, including my hubby who doesn’t care much for bread. If this doesn’t work for you… it is you and not the recipe. Soooo good.

I made this today for the first time. Like many of the other reviewers, I ended up adding an extra 1/2 cup of flour to just get the dough to hold together and then 1/4 cup more when I turned out the dough onto the counter ,it was still very sticky. I added a clove of garlic to the dough itself and then to the butter at the end instead of garlic powder . Turned out delicious. I made the dough in my bread maker on the dough setting. Put all the wet ingredients on the bottom and the dry ingredients on the top and finish it with the yeast. I definitely will make again , but with the extra flour garlic and a bit less sugar .

Runny dough…..awful recipe! Boo!!!!! Not a copycat recipe AT ALL!!!

We were disappointed in these. The dough needed a lot more flour to become a dough. They baked up dense, probably from the added flour, but it was literally liquid as written. I felt that they were also too sweet.

As other commenters noted, you do have to add extra flour, around a cup, but they are tasty!

These were great! Very easy and adaptable recipe.

Absolutely delicious, the kids really loved making this together and eating their creation. It is a thicker breadstick than Olive Garden but equally delicious. We helped the dough rise in a warming oven. Used much less butter on the top.?

These were delicious but the recipe needed WAY more flour than it called for (which is why I only gave it 4 stars). I probably added well over 1c of EXTRA flour beyond what the recipe stated. I also only used 1/2 stick of butter and found that was more than enough for the tops. I cut the sugar in half as well since I don’t like my bread too sweet.

So easy to make. I actually cut my ropes in 1/2 to get more smaller breadsticks. But man this is a fantastic recipe, light and fluffy breadsticks better than any breadstick I’ve had in a restaurant!

It’s very sweet as is. Cut down on the sugar if you want a more savory breadstick. Also, the dough needs considerably more flour, closer to 3 cups of flour.

Super fluffy my family couldn’t get enough of them. Works well in bread machine dough setting. Then let rise till doubled

This was my first attempt at making bread… don’t laugh and don’t be jealous, but they came out perfectly!! After a month in the lockdown of 2020, I decided that I had nothing to lose by trying. I learned a few knit-picky things from others, like; room temperature egg and sea salt, but the point of it all was to learn, come what may. So glad that I tried!

Way too little flour. Need an additional 3/4 to 1 cup. Add the flour and they will turn out well.
