Ingredients
Scale
Dough:
- 1 tube (13.8 oz) refrigerated pizza dough
Garlic Butter:
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Toppings:
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional)
For Serving:
- Marinara sauce for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Prepare the dough: Unroll the pizza dough and cut it into 12 equal strips. Twist or fold each strip in half lengthwise for extra fluffiness if desired, then place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Make the garlic butter: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and salt. Brush generously over each dough strip.
- Add toppings: Sprinkle with grated Parmesan and, if using, top with shredded mozzarella.
- Bake: Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until the breadsticks are golden brown and cooked through.
- Final touch: Brush with any remaining garlic butter and serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.
Notes
- For extra-cheesy crazy bread, stuff each strip with mozzarella string cheese before twisting.
- These are best served fresh but can be reheated in the oven or air fryer.
