Ingredients
  

For the Dough
  • 1 package Refrigerated Pizza Dough Use gluten-free pizza dough for a gluten-free version.
For the Flavor
  • 4 tablespoons Melted Butter You can substitute with olive oil for a lighter option.
  • 2 cloves Crushed Garlic If fresh garlic isn’t available, garlic powder works as a good alternative.
For the Cheese
  • 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese You might swap it with Colby Jack for a twist in flavor.
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese If you want to experiment, try Pecorino Romano instead for a bolder taste.
Optional Seasoning and Garnish
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano If you’re short on ingredients, feel free to skip it; they’ll still taste delicious without it.
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley If fresh isn’t on hand, dried parsley can be used as a substitute.

Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • cooking spray
  • Sharp knife or pizza cutter

Step-by-Step Instructions for Homemade Cheesy Breadsticks
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out the refrigerated pizza dough into an even rectangle on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Combine melted butter with crushed garlic in a small bowl and brush it evenly across the dough.
  4. Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheese evenly over the buttered surface of the dough.
  5. Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to cut the cheese-covered dough into 16 rectangles.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 12 minutes, until bubbly and golden.
  7. Remove from the oven, let cool for a couple of minutes, then slice along the pre-scored lines.
