Scale
- 4 tbsp butter (113 g) butter
- 1/4 cups (59 ml) parsley leaves
- 4-5 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 1/2 cups (355 ml) all purpose flour
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp olive oil (15 ml) olive oil
- 1 tsp instant dry yeast
- 1 cups (237 ml) warm water
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, add flour, salt, and yeast; make a well in the center.
- Pour in olive oil and warm water; mix until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough for about 10 minutes, using dry flour as needed.
- Let the dough rise in an oiled bowl, covered with cling wrap, for about an hour, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper or grease with butter.
- Divide the dough into 9 equal parts; roll into long tubes and tie into knots.
- Arrange the knots on the prepared tray and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine all garlic butter ingredients in a bowl.
- Remove the knots from the oven, brush with garlic butter, and bake for another 5 minutes.
- Serve warm with tomato salsa or another sauce.
Notes
- For richer flavor, use freshly grated Parmesan cheese in the garlic butter.
- To prevent sticking, lightly flour your work surface when kneading the dough.
- Store leftover garlic knots in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or freeze for longer storage.
