Garlic Cheese Breadsticks Recipe

Italian-American · Appetizer · 35 min total

Soft, cheesy breadsticks with a golden crust and a punch of garlic, perfect as an appetizer or side dish.

Ingredients

• 1 pound pizza dough, at room temperature
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a small bowl, mix melted butter and minced garlic. Set aside.
3. On a lightly floured surface, roll pizza dough into a 12x8-inch rectangle.
4. Brush the dough with half of the garlic butter. Sprinkle mozzarella, Parmesan, oregano, salt, and pepper evenly over the dough.
5. Cut the dough lengthwise into 8 strips (about 1-inch wide). Twist each strip and place on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each.
6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and cheese is bubbly.
7. Remove from oven and brush with remaining garlic butter. Sprinkle with parsley if desired. Serve warm.

Tips

• For extra crispiness, bake on a preheated pizza stone.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat in oven or toaster oven.
• Substitute gluten-free pizza dough if needed.
