Make easy, crispy garlic breadsticks using your air fryer. This recipe yields a soft interior and a perfectly crisp exterior.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated pizza dough
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Remove the pizza dough from the can and unroll it onto a lightly floured surface.
  2. Cut the dough into 10 to 12 strips, about 1 inch wide.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, and salt to make the garlic butter.
  4. Brush the garlic butter mixture generously over both sides of each dough strip.
  5. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for 3 minutes.
  6. Place the breadstick strips in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
  7. Air fry for 5 to 7 minutes, flipping them halfway through cooking, until they are golden brown and crisp.
  8. Remove the breadsticks from the air fryer. If using, immediately sprinkle with Parmesan cheese while they are hot.
  9. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, ensure the breadsticks are not touching in the air fryer basket during cooking.
  • If you prefer a softer breadstick, reduce the cooking time by 1 minute.
  • You can use store-bought bread dough instead of pizza dough for a slightly different texture.
