Directions
{{model.addEditText}} Print- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets.
- Dissolve yeast and 2 pinches white sugar in warm water in a bowl. Let stand until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes.
- Mix 4 cups flour, hot water, 3 tablespoons sugar, and salt together in a large mixing bowl; pour yeast mixture into the flour mixture and mix. Add remaining flour, one cup at a time, mixing well between additions. Continue to work the mixture until you have a dough; divide dough into 2 halves. Divide each half into 12 long bread sticks and arrange onto prepared baking sheets.
- Pour melted butter and sprinkle Parmesan cheese and garlic powder over the breadsticks.
- Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 13 minutes.

I love the concept and taste of these (they're huge, by the way - I could only fit 5 on a sheet). Made a half recipe as directed. I think you'd be better off starting with all the flour (as wi...

It must be called crazy bread but it’s crazy easy to make. I only made ¼ of the recipe, so I dissolved the yeast in all the water along with all the sugar the recipe required. Also, I didn’t b...

These were very good, and pretty easy. I did have to add a lot more flour (about 1 cup to 1/2 cups I would guess) than it called for because my dough was sooo sticky, but eventually it became e...

This was a good recipe. Easy to throw together. I used a gas oven and it took almost 20 minutes at the 400 (200C in my case)-- I cut the recipe in half and used 1/2 wheat flour (the bag was alre...

After hearing about Little Caesars pizza made with crazy bread crust I found this recipe. Used it as the pizza crust then topped it with marinara and cheese. Best pizza I have ever made. I did c...

These were very good, although I did make some changes. I omitted the ½ cup of water, and instead dissolved the yeast & sugar in the 2 cups of hot water. I used only 5 cups of flour, and it was ...

Excellent! Made very quickly to go with pizza and salad for a birthday party. Great with a dipping sauce. I made them smaller, 32 sticks total, and shortened baking time to 8-9 minutes. Don't be...

I took them out at 13 minutes and the bottoms were burnt. There was not enough butter to make them taste like crazy bread. I did add a little olive oil to the tops. These were not as crunchy on ...
