Ingredients

Breadsticks
1 lb store-bought pizza dough
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
Garlic Butter
3 tbsp melted butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Equipment

  • Air Fryer Parchment Liners

Steps

  1. 1

    Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick, then cut into 8 even strips.

  2. 2

    Brush each strip with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder and Italian seasoning.

  3. 3

    Gently twist each strip 3-4 times and place in the parchment-lined air fryer basket.

  4. 4

    Cook at 350°F for 7-8 minutes in batches until puffed and golden brown.

  5. 5

    Combine melted butter with minced garlic, then brush generously over the hot breadsticks and top with parsley and Parmesan.

💡

Tip: Let the pizza dough come to room temperature for 15-20 minutes before rolling — cold dough is elastic and will spring back, making it difficult to shape.
