These breadsticks are super simple to make, and because they start with a simple refrigerated, store-bought pizza crust, they can be made in the same time that your soup cooks.

Not only are these cheesy garlic breadsticks great with soup, they’re absolutely delicious with all of your favorite pasta dishes. Pair with a salad, and you’ve got a fantastic dinner idea ready to roll any night of the week!

Here’s how these super Easy Cheesy Breadsticks come together:

Step 1: Brush the pizza crush with melted butter and garlic

One of the aspects of making these cheesy garlic breadsticks so quick and easy to make is the fact that they start with a refrigerated pizza crust. I used a (10 oz.) tube of Pillsbury pizza crust that you would find in the refrigerated section near the biscuits, cinnamon rolls and croissants.

Simply roll out the crust on a sheet pan or baking stone. Then, combine the melted butter and garlic, and brush over the surface of the crust.

Step 2: Combine the cheeses, dried herbs and salt

Mmmmmm, my favorite part – the cheese!! In a bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses, as well as the basil, oregano and garlic salt. Stir together to combine. This will ensure that you have an even sprinkling of all the ingredients.

Step 3: Sprinkle the cheese mixture over the crust

Evenly sprinkle the cheese mixture evenly over the top of the buttered pizza crust. Go as far to the edge as possible.

Step 4: Pre-cut the breadsticks

Through a little trial and error, I discovered that pre-cutting the cheesy breadsticks before they go into the oven helps tremendously. It’s helpful in the fact that the cheese wont completely slide off each individual breadstick if you cut it after it comes out of the oven.

You can do this with a pizza cutter. You’ll likely need to cut through the breadsticks one more time after they come out of the oven.

Step 5: Re-slice and serve

Once the cheesy garlic breadsticks come out of the oven, run the pizza cutter through the strips one more time.

Again, this will help keep the cheese in place on each individual breadstick. Let them sit a few minutes to cool off, then serve ’em up!

These easy cheesy breaksticks are fantastic with a hearty bowl of soup. Great for dunking in the delicious broth, these cheesy garlic breadsticks will be your new go-to side for cold winter nights. Enjoy! ~Erin
