Instructions
Making Easy Cheesy Garlic Breadsticks is straightforward. Just follow these simple steps for perfect results:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
2. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt.
3. Add the Cheese: Stir in the shredded mozzarella cheese until evenly distributed in the dry mixture.
4. Incorporate Wet Ingredients: Pour in the milk and melted butter. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
5. Form the Dough: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead it gently 3-4 times until it’s soft.
6. Roll Out the Dough: Flatten the dough into a rectangle about ½ inch thick. Cut it into strips or your desired shape.
7. Prepare for Baking: Place the dough strips on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
8. Prepare Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic with melted butter. Brush this mixture generously on top of the breadsticks.
9. Sprinkle Parmesan: Top the brushed dough with grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.
10. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes or until the breadsticks are golden brown.
11. Garnish: Once out of the oven, brush additional garlic butter on top and sprinkle chopped parsley, if desired.
