Easy Garlic Breadsticks

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.

Turn the pizza dough onto a lightly floured surface. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a 1/4-inch thick rectangle of roughly 12x6 inches.

Cut the dough into twelve 6x1-inch rectangles and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet.

Place the melted butter, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder in a mixing bowl. Whisk to combine.

Brush the tops and sides of the breadsticks with half of the seasoned butter, reserving the remaining half.

Bake the breadsticks on middle rack of oven, rotating the pan halfway through the cook time, until they are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped, 15-18 minutes.

Check to see that breadsticks are done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

Brush the remaining seasoned butter over the breadsticks. Serve immediately.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Brown Butter for Depth 🧈
Melt your butter and cook it for 2-3 minutes until it turns golden brown with a nutty aroma, then brush onto the dough for exponentially richer, more complex garlic flavor.
Garlic Powder Application Timing ⏱️
Apply garlic powder after brushing butter onto the breadsticks rather than mixing it in beforehand, allowing it to toast slightly in the oven for a more vibrant, less harsh garlic taste.
Room Temperature Dough Success 🌡️
Let your pizza dough sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes before stretching and shaping to make it more pliable and easier to work with, resulting in tender breadsticks.
Brush-On Technique Matters 🖌️
Use a pastry brush to apply butter evenly in a thin layer rather than spreading thickly, ensuring even browning and preventing greasy, soggy bottoms.
Finishing Salt Elevates Everything 🧂
Sprinkle finishing salt (like fleur de sel) immediately after removing from the oven while butter is still warm, creating pockets of salty crunch that enhance all the flavors.
