Ingredients You Will Need

To make these breadsticks, you’ll need:

  • 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Simple ingredients, but together they create rich garlic aroma and cheesy yumminess.

How to Make Homemade Cheesy Garlic Breadsticks

Step 1: Prepare Your Oven

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). A hot oven ensures your dough rises well and the cheese browns beautifully.

Step 2: Shape the Dough

Lightly flour your working surface and roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle. Don’t worry about perfect edges—rustic looks great too!

Step 3: Move to the Baking Sheet

Transfer the dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. This avoids sticking and allows even baking.

Step 4: Make the Garlic Butter

In a small bowl, combine melted butter with minced garlic. This is the heart of flavor—fresh garlic gives the breadsticks their irresistible aroma.

Step 5: Brush the Dough

Generously brush the garlic butter mix across the entire surface of the dough. Make sure every inch is coated for maximum taste.

Step 6: Add the Cheese

Sprinkle mozzarella evenly, followed by Parmesan. Mozzarella melts beautifully while Parmesan adds sharp flavor.

Step 7: Season Well

Scatter parsley, oregano, garlic powder, and salt over the cheese. These herbs elevate everything with fragrance and taste.

Step 8: Bake to Perfection

Place the tray into the preheated oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until cheese melts and edges turn golden brown.

Once baked, let it cool slightly before slicing—it helps the cheese settle without stretching too much.

How to Serve These Breadsticks

Once your breadsticks are ready, slice them into strips or squares. Serve warm to enjoy that gooey, melty cheese texture.

They taste amazing with:

✔️ Marinara sauce
✔️ Ranch dressing
✔️ Garlic mayo
✔️ Creamy Alfredo dipping

These sides complement the flavors and make them even more enjoyable.

Tips for the Best Results

⭐ Don’t skip fresh garlic—it gives real depth to the recipe.
⭐ You can adjust herbs to your liking—basil or chili flakes work great too.
⭐ For extra crispiness, brush a little more butter on top after baking.
⭐ Add a sprinkle of chili flakes if you like spicy breadsticks.
