Garlic Balls image

I made these balls last night and my daughter, who doesn't eat much bread, ate 6 of these. These are great with any meal, especially Italian dishes.

Time 13m

Yield 20 balls, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 bag of italian pizza dough, already prepared at Publix Deli
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 cup butter
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F
  • Lightly oil a large cookie sheet.
  • Roll out the dough on a floured counter and cut into 1" strips. Then cut crosswise 1 1/2" so you end up with a 1 x 1 1/2" square
  • Butter the top with melted butter and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Let sit for 1 hour.
  • Bake for 13 minutes or until golden on top.
  • While balls bake, mince garlic and mash to a paste with salt, then stir together with butter, oil and onion powder and heat on stove (do not boil). Keep the butter mixture warm until the balls are done.
  • Immediately after baking, place the balls in a bowl with the melted garlic butter and toss to coat the bread.
  • Serve warm.
