Description

Soft, fluffy copycat Olive Garden‑style garlic breadsticks brushed with butter and garlic salt


Ingredients

  • 1 (25 oz) package Parker House roll dough (or equivalent frozen yeast‑dough rolls)
  • ~¼ cup melted butter (divided)
  • garlic salt (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Thaw the Parker House roll dough and roll each piece into an 8‑inch stick.
  2. Place on parchment‑lined baking sheet and let rise in a warm spot for ~30 minutes.
  3. Preheat oven to 375 °F.
  4. Brush the sticks with melted butter then bake ~10 minutes until lightly golden.
  5. Immediately brush again with remaining butter and sprinkle garlic salt.
  6. Serve warm.

Notes

  • For classic Olive Garden flavor, use liquid margarine rather than butter when brushing, per an employee disclosure :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}.
  • You may substitute Parker House dough with active yeast dough if preferred.
  • Option: serve with warmed marinara sauce.
