Ingredients:
Ingredients | Quantity |
---|---|
Pre-made pizza dough | 1 lb package |
Unsalted butter | 1/2 cup |
Garlic cloves | 3 |
Italian seasoning | 1 tsp |
Garlic powder | 1/2 tsp |
Salt | 1/4 tsp |
Mozzarella cheese | 2 cups shredded |
Parmesan cheese | 1/4 cup grated |
Fresh parsley | Chopped for garnish (optional) |
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface until it’s about 1/2 inch thick rectangle. Transfer it to your prepared baking sheet.
- Make Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt.
- Brush Dough: Brush the savory garlic butter mixture generously over the top of your dough.
- Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese and grated parmesan evenly over the buttered dough.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and the edges are golden brown.
- Cool and Serve: Let the breadsticks cool slightly before cutting them into portions with a pizza cutter or a sharp knife. Optionally, sprinkle chopped parsley over the breadsticks before serving for added flavor and freshness.
