Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Divide your pizza dough into 10 equal portions, and roll each into 8-inch ropes.
Snip two cuts at each end of the dough ropes to mimic bone ends.
Brush each breadstick with melted butter and sprinkle with Parmesan before baking for 15 minutes.
Top each breadstick with shredded mozzarella and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes until cheese is bubbling.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.
