Ingredients

• 1 package refrigerated pizza dough
• 24 pieces pepperoni slices
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup marinara sauce (for dipping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Roll out the refrigerated pizza dough onto a lightly floured surface, shaping it into a rectangle approximately 10x14 inches.

Step 3

Cut the dough lengthwise into 8 equal strips using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.

Step 4

Place 3 slices of pepperoni and a small handful of shredded mozzarella cheese on one half of each dough strip lengthwise.

Step 5

Fold the other half of each strip over the fillings and pinch the edges to seal tightly, forming a breadstick shape.

Step 6

Twist each breadstick gently for a decorative effect, then arrange them on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced.

Step 7

Melt the unsalted butter in a small bowl. Stir in garlic powder and dried Italian seasoning.

Step 8

Brush the butter mixture generously over each breadstick.

Step 9

Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly across the tops of the breadsticks.

Step 10

Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the breadsticks are golden brown and puffed.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and allow the breadsticks to cool slightly on the baking sheet.

Step 12

Serve warm with marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
