    Cheesy Breadstick Pizza is a deep dish pizza with gooey, melted cheese in the crust! It’s topped with pizza sauce, pepperoni and of course, more cheese!

    Cheesy Breadstick Pizza

    My family loves trying various forms of pizza and we love eating at new pizza places. The whole family gets involved in critiquing the pizza from the crust and the spices to the sauce and the cheese. We talk about what is perfect about the pizza, what they could improve on and how likely it is that we would return for more pizza.

     It’s fun to recreate our favorites at home like Macaroni and Cheese Pizza and Pretzel Pizza. We also like to dream up new ways to make “pizza” like Pizza Dip and Pizza Casserole. Today I’m excited to share out latest creation: Cheesy Breadstick Pizza!

    pepperoni pizza rollsEasy Pepperoni Rolls was the very first “pizza” recipe I shared on my blog back in 2011! It’s actually my very first recipe post and it continues to be one of my most popular blog posts ever with over 900,000 pageviews. And best of all, it has spectacular photos!

    I just wanted to tell you that this recipe is just amazing and so easy to make, my 13 year old boy learned how to make these yummy pizza rolls he said that they are way better than the frozen ones, he also said he will never eat the frozen ones again. It makes me feel good that he can just whip these up and throw them in the oven as an after school snack. Thank you!! ~Jannette

    breadsticks in pan

    To make this Cheesy Breadstick Pizza, line the bottom of a 9×13 pan with frozen, cheese filled breadsticks I used Market Pantry Cheese-Filled Breadsticks from Target. I’ve also found frozen cheese stuffed breadsticks at my local Econo Foods – Our Family Mozzarella Stuffed Breadsticks and Cole’s brand also sells Cheesesticks. I was able to fit ten breadsticks in my pan.

    breadsticks covered with cheese

    Sprinkle with breadsticks with shredded mozzarella cheese. This will help hold the breadsticks together and provide more of a surface for the sauce to be spread on.

    top with sauce and pepperoni

    Spoon pizza sauce over the cheese and spread it out. Top with sliced pepperoni.

    top with shredded cheese

    Sprinkle with more shredded mozzarella and a little oregano.

    baked breadstick pizza

    Bake at 425 degrees for 20-15 minutes until the cheese is browned and the pizza is hot and bubbly!

    Cheesy Breadstick Pizza slices

    Who could resist all of that cheesy goodness? This Cheesy Breadstick Pizza was easy to make and the whole family loved it. We put the leftovers in the fridge and when we warmed them up in the microwave a couple of days later, it was still delicious!

      Simple ingredients but it had so much flavor. Added halved meatballs for more protein.

      This was really, really tasty. I added Italian meatballs cut in half as I had them in the fridge already. Super good. Thanks for the recipe!

      I have searched locally for the cheese filled breadsticks and haven’t located such yet, can you provide a name brand that you used? Maybe I can get them from Schwans? I really want to make this dish, but I think its critical to have the cheese filled sticks, wow

        Thanks for asking! Yes, it looks like Schwan’s sells cheese filled breadsticks. I’ve updated the post with this info:
