Ingredients

  • 1 (13.8 oz) tube Classic Great Value Pizza Crust
  • 3 tbsp Butter
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Salt
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese, Grated

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Step 2: Line a baking pan with parchment paper and roll out the pizza dough onto the pan.
  3. Step 3: Use a pizza cutter to slice the dough into equal breadstick-sized pieces.
  4. Step 4: Bake the slices for 6 minutes, or until they turn golden brown.
  5. Step 5: While the breadsticks bake, melt the butter in a small bowl and mix in the garlic salt.
  6. Step 6: When the breadsticks are done, brush them generously with the garlic butter mixture.

Tips & Variations

  • For extra flavor, sprinkle a bit of dried Italian seasoning or crushed red pepper flakes on the breadsticks before baking.
  • Use fresh garlic minced finely instead of garlic salt for a more robust garlic taste.
  • Serve with marinara sauce for dipping to mimic the classic Crazy Bread experience.

Storage

Store leftover breadsticks in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To reheat, warm them in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 5-7 minutes to restore crispness.

How to Serve

A round wooden board holds a pile of breadsticks dusted with white powdered Parmesan cheese. The breadsticks are pale with a soft texture and are arranged side by side and overlapping in a slightly messy stack. In the center of the board sits a small white bowl filled with a thick, red marinara sauce topped with crumbled white cheese and tiny green herb bits. The background features a white marbled surface and partially visible containers of grated Parmesan and more red sauce. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

  • 3 tbsp Butter
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (204 degrees Celsius) to ensure it’s ready for baking the breadsticks perfectly.
  2. Prepare Baking Pan: Line a baking pan with parchment paper. This prevents sticking and makes cleanup easy.

  4. Slice Dough: Using a pizza cutter, cut the dough into equal strips or slices, mimicking traditional breadstick shapes.
  5. Bake Breadsticks: Bake the dough slices in the preheated oven for about 6 minutes or until the breadsticks are golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Melt Butter and Mix Seasoning: While the breadsticks bake, melt the butter in a small bowl and stir in the garlic salt to create a flavorful butter mixture.
  7. Brush Butter Mixture: As soon as the breadsticks are out of the oven, brush them liberally with the garlic butter mixture, allowing the flavors to soak in.
  8. Add Parmesan Topping: Finally, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the warm breadsticks to give them that signature cheesy finish.

Notes

  • You can substitute garlic salt with garlic powder and a pinch of regular salt if preferred.
  • For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of dried Italian herbs to the butter mixture.
  • Serve the breadsticks warm with marinara or your favorite dipping sauce.
  • This recipe uses store-bought pizza dough for convenience, but homemade dough works just as well.
