Italian Bread Twists Recipe
Who doesn’t love carbs, right?? And lately, I’ve been craving pasta, bread, muffins, all of it. But sometimes I really don’t want to slave away for hours just to get a roll, you know? So I made these really yummy Italian bread twists that are soooo easy to make and ready in less than 20 minutes!
The best part about these breadsticks is that you don’t have to make the dough from scratch! You can use premade breadstick dough which is how you can be biting into that soft, buttery breadstick in only 20 minutes! This is a great recipe to have on hand because it’s simple and easy, and you can whip it up quickly for any meal! Not to mention, these Italian bread twists taste insanely delicious.
