Homemade “Pizza Hut” Bread Sticks

Plain people like their Pizza Hut!

By Kevin Williams

I have been looking for this recipe forever! I knew I had it in my files somewhere but could never find it.  I guess today I just got lucky and turned over the right sheet of paper and saw it.  It’s written on the back of a recipe for homemade “squash rolls” which I’ll have to share with you another time.

Amish cooks enjoy “copy cat” recipes. Why go to the grocery store to buy Heinz ketchup if you can make your homemade? In this case, why go to Pizza Hut for breadsticks when you can whip them up at home.  We’ve also posted Amish recipes for homemade  “Pizza Hut sauce” before.

This recipe comes to us from the Misheal Kopp, a Mennonite woman who lives in the community of Rich Hill, Missouri.

I will confess I’ve not been to Pizza Hut in a long, long time (my Dad always called it “Grease-a Hut”).  But their breadsticks, if memory serves me correct, were pretty tasty.  Now you can try a homemade version!  The recipe that I have does not give a baking time, so you’ll just have to keep an eye on the oven and a yield was also not given.
