Cheese Mixture
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp garlic powder
Binding Ingredient
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and aid cleanup.
- Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella, parmesan cheese, egg, and garlic powder. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated into a uniform dough-like mixture.
- Shape and Flatten: Transfer the mixture onto the prepared parchment paper. Flatten it out evenly into a shape similar to a pizza crust, ensuring consistent thickness for even baking.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes until the cheese mixture is set and starting to look golden.
- Broil for Browning: Switch the oven to broil and move the baking sheet to the top rack. Broil for a few minutes until the cheese on top browns slightly, creating a deliciously crispy texture. Watch closely to avoid burning.
- Slice and Serve: Using a pizza cutter, slice the baked breadsticks into desired sizes. Serve warm with optional dips like marinara or pizza sauce, and garnish with red pepper flakes, parsley flakes, or Italian seasoning if desired.
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can mix in some sharp cheddar cheese with the mozzarella, keeping the total cheese amount to 1 cup.
- If using pre-grated parmesan cheese, reduce the quantity to about half a cup to maintain texture and flavor balance.
