COPYCAT LITTLE CAESARS CRAZY BREAD (no cans, no boxes, FROM SCRATCH!)

This recipe uses NO CANS, NO FROZEN DOUGH, NO BOXES, IT’S FROM SCRATCH!!!!! 🙂

I’ve made a lot of copycats, but this one is DEAD ON! The original instructions called for a stand mixed and a dough hook, but I just used my hands and it came out perfect! There’s just something about that buttery greasy goodness that I just love. This is quick, no fail, super easy, and the KIDS LOVED IT! This made enough for my family with some left over and we have 7 people! If you love crazy bread, you’ll never want to buy it again after trying this!

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup warm water
2 1/4 teas yeast
2 teas sugar
2 1/2 cup flour
1 teas salt
2 TBSP butter, melted and combined with 1 teas garlic powder
2 TBSP grated Parmesan cheese

INSTRUCTIONS:

In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the warm water, yeast and sugar. Allow to sit for 5 minutes or so, until the mixture is foamy. (I just use a whisk and skip the whole mixer thing)

Add the flour and salt. Using a dough hook, knead the dough for 5 minutes or until it’s smooth and not sticky. Let rest for 10 minutes. (I used my hands to mix, no machine or dough hook)

Brush a pizza pan with a little olive oil. I like to sprinkle a little cornmeal over the pan to make it more like Little Caesar’s but you don’t have to. Roll out the dough to cover the pan. Using a pizza cutter, slice down the middle then across to form sticks. Let rest for 10 more minutes.

Heat oven to 450 degrees. Bake for 6-8 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately brush with butter mixture, then sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Serve warm with pizza sauce.
