🧀 Cheesy Garlic Breadsticks
Soft, buttery, and loaded with garlic and melted cheese—these are perfect as a side or snack!
🧾 Ingredients
- 1 loaf pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2–3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)
- Pinch of salt
- Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
👩🍳 Instructions
- Preheat oven
- Set to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Shape the dough
- Roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle (about ½ inch thick).
- Add garlic butter
- Mix melted butter and garlic.
- Brush evenly over the dough.
- Add cheese & seasoning
- Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan evenly.
- Add Italian seasoning and a pinch of salt.
- Bake
- Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden and bubbly.
- Slice & serve
- Cut into strips while warm.
- Garnish with parsley and serve with marinara sauce if desired.
✨ Tips
- For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of chili flakes or garlic powder.
- Use a mix of cheeses (cheddar + mozzarella) for a richer taste.
- Brush a little more garlic butter after baking for that restaurant-style finish.
🔥 Quick shortcut:
Use store-bought naan or flatbread instead of dough—cuts cooking time in half and still tastes amazing.
If you want, I can also give you a stuffed cheesy garlic breadsticks version (like pizza chains make) with gooey cheese inside.
