Pepperoni Pizza Sticks

Recipe Description

These soft and chewy breadsticks are filled with String Cheese, making them perfect for lunch, snacks, appetizers, and grab-n-go dinners.

 

Ingredients

  • 1 lb prepared pizza dough
  • 2 tbsp olive oil 
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced 
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano 
  • 1/2 pkg (10 oz pkg) Burnett Dairy Mozzarella String Cheese (6 pieces), halved 
  • Pepperoni slices
  • 1 egg, beaten 
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds 
  • 1 cup pizza sauce, warmed 

Preparation

Preheat oven to 425°F. Divide dough into 12 portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each portion into 5 x 3-inch pieces, about 1/4-inch (5 mm) thick. Mix together olive oil, garlic, and oregano. Brush evenly over pieces of dough. 

Place string cheese in the center of each piece of dough. Add sliced pepperoni. Fold short ends of dough over cheese and pepperoni, then roll up like a burrito; pinch edges tightly to seal. Place on parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Brush with egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake for 13 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with pizza sauce for dipping.

Tip: Kids will love these, but they are also a fun appetizer for adults – perfect for casual entertaining, watching the big game, or potluck parties.
