Ingredients Needed

Here’s what you need to make these spooky breadsticks:

Warm Tap Water: Just make sure it’s not too hot. This helps the yeast work its magic to make the dough rise. Sugar and Yeast: These two work together to activate the yeast. Bread Flour: This type of flour makes the breadsticks chewy and tasty. But if all purpose flour is all you have, you can use that too. Salt and Melted Butter: Added for flavor. Toppings: Includes garlic granules, dried oregano, sesame seeds (white and black) for seasoning, and blanched almonds and marinara for the “nails.”

Complete list of ingredients and amounts can be found in the recipe card below.

How To Make Witch Finger Breadsticks

Recipe Tips

Make sure your water is warm, but not hot, to activate the yeast correctly. If you have a thermometer, it must be up to 130°F (55°C) not higher. Knead the dough well; this helps the breadsticks get a good texture by forming enough gluten. Press the almonds in firmly, so they don’t fall off while baking.

Storing Tips

Room Temperature: If you plan to eat the breadsticks within a day or two, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. Fridge: For longer storage but less than a week, put them in an airtight container and store in the fridge. Just warm them up a little before eating. Freezer: If you want to keep them for more than a week, you can freeze them. Wrap each breadstick in plastic wrap, then put them all in a zip-top bag. When you’re ready to eat them, thaw at room temperature and warm them up in the oven.

What To Serve With

Alfredo Sauce: This creamy sauce is my go-to dip for breadsticks. Try making it at home; it’s worth it! Marinara: Homemade marinara sauce is simple to make, but you can also go for a store-bought jar if you have a brand you like. Ranch Sauce: Making ranch sauce at home is way better than getting it from the store. Trust me, it’s awesome! Salsa Ranchera: This is a Mexican-style salsa made with roasted veggies. It’s simple to make and goes well with the breadsticks.

These witch finger breadsticks are a hit for Halloween and are really fun to make. Plus, they taste really good! Keep this recipe handy for the holiday and feel free to share it with your friends so they can enjoy it too. © Little Sunny Kitchen
