  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted) Gives a golden finish.
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese Adds nutty flavor.

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Divide the pizza dough into 10 equal portions and roll each into a rope about 8 inches long.
  3. Make two small cuts on both ends of each dough rope and gently pull and stretch to create a bone shape.
Baking
  1. Brush each breadstick with melted butter and sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
  2. Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  3. Remove from oven, sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top, and bake for another 5-7 minutes until bubbly.
Serving

Notes

Don’t overhandle the dough for fluffy breadsticks. Experiment with different cheeses and dips!
