- 1 clove garlic, finely minced
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, grated
- 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon dried basil
- Salt & pepper to taste
Preparation:
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Mix melted butter and minced garlic in a small bowl and set aside. Unroll the pizza dough onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and brush generously with the garlic butter mixture.
- Sprinkle the grated mozzarella, Parmesan cheese, dried basil, salt, and pepper evenly over the dough. Use a pizza cutter to cut the dough into breadstick shapes (lengthwise into 7 long strips and crosswise into 3 strips). Do not separate the strips.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the breadsticks are light golden brown. Recut along each strip and remove from the baking sheet. Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.
