Print Recipe

This homemade garlic butter sauce is rich, smooth, and better than takeout. Made with simple pantry ingredients, it comes together in minutes and is perfect for dipping pizza crust or drizzling over your favorite pizza.

Ingredients

Scale

  • ½ cup unsalted butter

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • Pinch of sugar

Instructions

  1. Add the butter to a small saucepan and melt over low heat.

  2. Stir in the garlic powder, salt, and a pinch of sugar until fully combined.

  3. Warm the sauce for 1–2 minutes, stirring gently. Do not boil.

  4. Remove from heat and serve warm as a pizza dipping sauce or drizzle over pizza crust.

Notes

  • Keep the heat low to prevent the butter from separating.

  • The sugar does not make the sauce sweet — it simply balances the garlic and salt.

  • Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
