Tips for Making Homemade Bread Sticks
- You can use either homemade pizza dough or store-bought pizza dough.
- You can also purchase pizza dough from your favorite pizza restaurant. They will sell you dough!
- If you're using store-bought pizza dough, make sure it's at room temperature before trying to roll it out.
Step by Step Instructions
Place each twisted bread stick on a parchment lined baking tray. Even if you have non-stick baking trays you're going to want to line them with parchment paper. It helps crisp up the bread sticks.
Serve with tomato sauce to dip the bread sticks in on the side.

If made ahead do they reheat well?

I would make them ahead but not bake them. Keep them in the refrigerator on a baking tray wrapped in plastic wrap. Remove from the refrigerator about an hour before baking.
