Cheese-Loaded Garlic Breadsticks: The Ultimate Comfort Snack
Cheese-Loaded Garlic Breadsticks are everything we love about homemade comfort food—soft, fluffy dough, bold garlic flavor, and a generous layer of melted cheese that stretches with every bite. Perfect as an appetizer, party snack, or a cozy side dish, these breadsticks bring bakery-style indulgence straight to your kitchen. Made fresh and served warm, they’re simple to prepare and impossible to resist.
What Makes These Breadsticks Special
Unlike ordinary breadsticks, this version is brushed with rich garlic butter and piled high with cheese before baking. The result is a golden, slightly crisp top with a soft, chewy center and layers of savory flavor. You can customize the cheese blend, adjust the garlic intensity, or add herbs to make them your own.
Ingredients You’ll Need
For the dough:
- All-purpose flour
- Warm water
- Active dry yeast
- Sugar
- Salt
- Olive oil
For the topping:
- Unsalted butter
- Fresh garlic, finely minced
- Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- Parmesan cheese, grated
- Italian seasoning or dried oregano
- Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Step-by-Step Method
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
In a bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let the mixture rest for a few minutes until it becomes foamy, which means the yeast is activated. Add olive oil, salt, and gradually mix in the flour. Stir until a soft dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic. This usually takes about 8–10 minutes. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size.
Step 2: Shape the Dough
Once risen, gently punch down the dough to release air. Roll it out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, shaping it into a rectangle of even thickness. This ensures the breadsticks bake evenly and stay soft inside.
