Absolutely delicious warm from the oven, these bread knots are for real garlic lovers. We use fresh garlic cloves in the butter baste for intense allium flavor; for a milder take, you can use ½ teaspoon garlic powder instead. For the best flavor, use salted butter; if all you have is unsalted, stir in a pinch or two of salt.

Ingredients

Self-rising flour

1¼ cup(s)

Plain fat free Greek yogurt

¾ cup(s)

Unsalted butter

1½ Tbsp

Olive oil

1 Tbsp

Italian seasoning

¾ tsp

Garlic

2 clove(s), grated

Marinara sauce

1 cup(s)

Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

2

Place the flour and yogurt in a medium bowl; stir well with a wooden spoon until just combined and then keep mixing the dough in the bowl with your hands until smooth, about 1 to 2 minutes (if the dough seems too crumbly, keep mixing and kneading until it comes together).

3

Divide the dough into 7 equal pieces; roll each piece into a 10- to 11-inch rope. Cut each rope in half to form 14 shorter ropes. Tie each rope into a knot, tucking the ends under. Arrange the dough knots on the prepared pan. Bake until lightly browned, about 12 minutes.

4

Meanwhile, place the butter, oil, Italian seasoning, and garlic in a small microwave-safe bowl; cover and microwave on high for 1 minute. After the knots have baked for 12 minutes, brush them evenly with the butter-garlic mixture. Bake until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve the knots with marinara sauce.

Serving size: 1 garlic knot and about 1 tbsp marinara sauce
