Crazy Bread Recipes

Steps:

• 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.

Steps:

• Special equipment: one 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-by-2 1/2-inch glass loaf pan
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F; generously grease the loaf pan with butter.
• Whisk together the flour, sugar, beer, rosemary and Parmesan in a large bowl until evenly incorporated yet slightly lumpy. Transfer to the prepared loaf pan. Bake until golden and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 minutes. Unmold onto a rack and let cool. Cut into 1-inch slices and serve with butter.

Steps:

• In a small bowl add the warm water, then the yeast. Let set until yeast dissolves, then add the sugar. Then add the flour and salt.
• Stir until the mixture is well incorporated. If needed, add some extra flour to get a good dough ball. Knead for five minutes (or use a KitchenAid Mixer).
• Place in a bowl that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Cover and let raise for 20 minutes.
• Heat oven to 450 degrees.
• Once the dough has raised, place onto a cookie sheet that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Flatten with hands. Using pizza cutter, cut into strips.
• Bake at 450 for 10-12 minutes until slightly brown.
• When done cooking, remove from oven. Let cool slightly. Spread top with melted butter or margarine. Then sprinkle with parmesan cheese and garlic salt. Or for sweet treats, use cinnamon/sugar mix and dip in frosting.

Steps:

• Form dough into any size or shape you would like. I prefer to make stick shapes.
• Bake in the oven at 350F until pale and golden in color, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile in a saucepan on low heat, melt the butter. Add minced garlic, cooking slightly and being careful not to burn. Set that aside until bread sticks are cooked.
• When bread sticks are still warm out of the oven, immerse each one into the butter mixture,coating them generously.
• Place on a cookie sheat and sprinkle with parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning.
• Best to eat when they are still warm.
