Ingredients
Scale
Dough
- 1 pound pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
Toppings
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Optional
- Marinara sauce or garlic butter for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
- Prepare the dough: Roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle or circle about ¼-inch thick. Transfer the rolled dough to the prepared baking sheet.
- Add butter and garlic: Brush the melted unsalted butter evenly over the surface of the dough, then sprinkle garlic powder over it for flavor.
- Top with cheeses and seasoning: Spread the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheeses evenly across the dough. Sprinkle the Italian seasoning on top to enhance the flavor.
- Bake the breadsticks: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until the edges turn golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Cool and serve: Allow the breadsticks to cool for 2-3 minutes, then slice into strips. Serve warm with marinara sauce or garlic butter for dipping.
Notes
- Use store-bought or homemade pizza dough according to your preference.
- For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes before baking.
- These breadsticks are best enjoyed fresh and warm.
- To reheat, warm them in the oven at 350°F for a few minutes to restore crispiness.
