Twisted Pizza Breadsticks
Prep Time15 Minutes
Servings8
Cook Time10 Minutes
Ingredients
1 13.8-ounce can refrigerated pizza crust
⅓ cup pizza sauce
¼ cup chopped pepperoni
⅓ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons butter, melted
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon dried garlic powder
¼ teaspoon salt
Directions
  1. Heat the oven to 425 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Remove the pizza crust from the packaging and place it on a large cutting board or clean countertop. Roll it out a little so it’s a rectangle and even on each side. Cut the rectangle in half the long way.
  3. Spread the pizza sauce on one of the halves and then sprinkle with pepperoni and mozzarella cheese.
  4. Place the other half of the dough on top of the cheese and slice into 1-inch strips. Seal the ends of each strip using a fork to press the ends down into each other.
  5. Twist each breadstick twice and then place on the prepared baking sheet about 1-inch apart.
  6. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, oregano, basil, garlic powder, and salt. Brush the butter mixture over each twisted breadstick.
  7. Bake for 10 to 11 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve with additional pizza sauce. Enjoy!
