Ingredients
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning (or dried oregano/basil mix)
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
- Optional: Marinara or ranch sauce for dipping
Directions
1️⃣ Preheat the Oven:
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray lightly with cooking spray.
2️⃣ Mix the Dough:
In a bowl, combine the mozzarella, Parmesan, egg, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Stir until well combined.
3️⃣ Spread the Mixture:
Evenly spread the cheese mixture onto the lined baking sheet in a rectangular shape. Aim for about 1/4″ thickness to ensure even baking.
4️⃣ Bake:
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
5️⃣ Optional Broil:
If you want extra crispiness, turn on the broiler for 1 minute—but watch closely to prevent burning.
6️⃣ Slice into Sticks:
Let the cheesy bread cool slightly, then cut into breadstick-sized strips.
7️⃣ Garnish & Serve:
Sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
