Directions:Oven Preparation: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure optimal baking conditions.
Dough Preparation: Unroll the refrigerated pizza crust dough onto a baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper, facilitating easy removal post-baking.
Garlic Butter Mixture: In a small mixing bowl, combine the unsalted butter and minced garlic, stirring until fully integrated.
Application of Garlic Butter: Utilize a pastry brush to evenly distribute the garlic butter mixture across the surface of the dough, ensuring comprehensive coverage.
Basil Application: Sprinkle half of the dried basil over the garlic butter-infused dough.
Cheese Topping: Evenly distribute the shredded Mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese over the dough, covering the basil layer.
Final Seasoning: Add the remaining dried basil and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper according to taste preferences.
Slicing the Dough: Employ a pizza cutter to divide the dough into 12 equal breadsticks, ensuring uniformity in size.
Baking: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden.
Post-Bake Slicing: After baking, immediately reslice along the pre-cut lines with the pizza cutter to ensure the breadsticks are separated cleanly.
Serving: Serve the breadsticks warm, ideally directly from the oven for best taste and texture. |
