These Cheesy Pepperoni Pizza Sticks<\/strong> are made with refrigerated pizza dough, mozzarella cheese sticks and plenty of pepperoni.<\/em><\/p>\n Dip these cheesy pizza sticks into some Homemade Marinara Sauce<\/a> for an epic snack, easy lunch or game day appetizer!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n All you need is 6 simple ingredients to make this easy snack recipe. There is virtually no dishes to clean up. BONUS – they’re super quick to put together.<\/p>\n Here’s what you’ll need in order to make these delicious pizza sticks! As always, you can find the full list of ingredients located in the recipe card below.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n These pizza sticks are so easy to make, the kids love getting in there and helping out too!<\/p>\n CUT PIZZA DOUGH <\/strong> Start by rolling out the pizza dough into a large rectangle. Cut the pizza dough into 10 equal pieces, long enough to fit the cheese sticks. I like to use a pizza cutter<\/a> to make the cuts easier. <\/p>\n TOP WITH CHEESE<\/strong> Add the pepperoni down the center of each piece of dough and top with a cheese stick. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n ROLL UP TIGHT<\/strong> Roll up the dough tightly around the cheese sticks, making sure to pinch the sides and place the seam-side down on the baking sheet.<\/p>\n BRUSH WITH BUTTER <\/strong> Melt the butter and combine the garlic powder and parsley. Brush this mixture over the top of each pizza stick to give it a nice buttery topping.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Bake the pizza sticks at 450 degrees F. for just 10 to 12 minutes<\/strong>. <\/p>\n You may have some cheese that oozes out of the pizza sticks after they have baked. That’s ok! I love the melty cheese that gets slightly crispy on the pan.<\/p>\n The fun thing about these pizza sticks is that they are completely customizable to your taste preferences. <\/p>\n Try adding all sorts of filling options like: sliced olives, sliced mushrooms, green peppers, onions, sausage, bacon, etc.<\/p>\n PRO TIP: <\/strong> Make sure you don’t overfill the pizza sticks as they will get more difficult to wrap up. Just a little filling is all you need. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n I often get asked if you can make these cheesy pepperoni pizza sticks ahead of time. The answer is YES!<\/p>\n You can bake these pizza sticks, let them cool, then pop them in a zip close bag in the fridge. To reheat, bake them in the oven until they’re heated through or you can air fry them to get them nice and crisp on the outisde.<\/p>\n This is my favorite air fryer<\/a> to use to reheat pizza sticks. <\/p>\n FREEZE<\/strong> You can also freeze the baked pizza sticks for up to 3 months. They’re great for pulling out and making an easy snack.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In order to keep the pizza sticks from getting soggy, I’ve opted to not add any sauce to the inside. <\/p>\n The best thing to do is dip the pizza sticks in a warmed marinara sauce<\/a>, similar to fried mozzarella sticks. <\/p>\n To make these pizza sticks a full meal, try adding my Caesar Pasta Salad<\/a> as a side!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We love pizza in this house!
