PLANO, Texas, Nov. 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Just in time for the holidays, Pizza Hut has a two-for-one gift to celebrate the many unapologetic, bold innovations born under the Hut in 2019.

Returning for the first time since its debut in 2016, the Stuffed Garlic Knots Pizza is the pizza with an appetizer baked right onto the crust. Surrounded by 16 Garlic Knots stuffed with melted cheese, this "Pizza-tizer" is topped with delicious garlic herb seasoning, perfect for those feeling a little "knotty" these holidays.

Back by popular demand, Pizza Hut is re-launching the fan-favorite Stuffed Garlic Knots Pizza for the first time since 2016. The “pizza-tizer” will be available for a limited time only this holiday season.

"From bold flavors and Only from Pizza Hut innovations to new store concepts and signature re-launches, we're blending nostalgia and modernization to showcase our past and highlight our future," said Marianne Radley, chief brand officer, Pizza Hut. "As we close out the year, we're bringing back a classic before the holidays with the return of the Stuffed Garlic Knots Pizza and all that gooey cheesiness we know our customers love."

This is the second appetizer-crusted pizza to hit Pizza Hut menus in 2019, returning like the iconic Cheesy Bites Pizza, which lives in the lore of Pizza Hut innovations over the years.
