Pro tips and tricksThese breadsticks are super easy to make. You can make the process even easier by following some of these easy tricks.
Are Olive garden breadsticks vegan?The original Olive Garden recipe is not vegan because it uses butter to make the sticks and to top them. But you can easily make these breadsticks vegan by using canola oil in the breadsticks and olive oil to top them. Though they will still taste amazing, they will not have the exact flavor of the Olive Garden. Can Olive Garden breadsticks be frozen?Yes! You can freeze the breadsticks once you make either the dough or bake the sticks.
How do you reheat breadsticks
How to serveThese copycat Olive Garden breadsticks are best served warm from the oven with the melted butter brushed on top. They are a great appetizer and go well with just about any meal, salad, or appetizer. If you love soup as much as I do, you can serve it with either our Sopa De Fideo or Broccoli Cheese soup. They are great dippables and a great way to soak up the last little bit of soup. Another great way to serve the breadsticks is as an appetizer at a get together or just for your family when you want a simple snack. When I serve it as an appetizer, I often make a fresh batch of our homemade Marinara Sauce to dip into. How long do breadsticks lastThese breadsticks should last for several days on the counter. Be sure to let them cool and place them in an airtight container. You may want to place a few paper towels with them to help prevent moisture. They should last for about 5 to 6 days. You can also store them in the fridge for about 6 to 7 days. If you freeze them, they should last about 6 months.

How Does Olive Garden bake their breadsticks?Fresh, Never Frozen
Olive Garden has an industrial-sized bread maker that cooks the dough flawlessly and keeps those golden brown beauties warm until they are served. A fresh batch of breadsticks is cooked every 15 minutes, so you're always guaranteed a hot one.
How do you bake unbaked Olive Garden breadsticks?No problem! Simply order the unbaked breadsticks. Remove the breadsticks from their bags and place them on a baking sheet to go in a preheated 450° oven for 6 to 8 minutes. Once golden brown, remove from the oven and brush with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic salt.
How long do you bake Olive Garden breadsticks?When ready to eat, brush the breadsticks with garlic butter and wrap loosely in foil, then bake at 400 for 6-8 minutes and brush with butter again just before serving.
How do you heat Olive Garden breadsticks at home?Preheat a conventional oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Leave the breadsticks in the bag if possible. If you already ditched the bag, try wrapping the breadsticks in foil or placing them on a pan and covering them with foil. Cook in this manner for about 5 minutes or until the breadsticks are warm and soft.
