Garlic Knots Recipe

• 🍴3 cup all-purpose flour
• 🍴1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 🍴3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• 🍴4 cloves minced garlic

For Dough

• 🍴2 1/2 teaspoon dry yeast
• 🍴2 teaspoon virgin olive oil
• 🍴1 cup boiling water
• 🍴1 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 🍴1/4 cup lukewarm milk
• 🍴1 tablespoon sugar

• 🍴In a dough kneading plate, add all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, dry yeast, virgin olive oil, milk, and lukewarm water. Knead the dough for about 10-15 minutes and use the dough scraper to get the dough together at intervals. (Note: You can also use instant yeast for the dough.)
• 🍴Place the dough in a greased bowl with enough room for the rise. Cover with a cling film and put the bowl aside for about 45 minutes to an hour. Let the dough rise, it will double in size.
• 🍴Once the dough rises, remove it from the bowl and deflate gently to release the air. Knead very briefly (a few seconds) and gently. Divide the dough into equal proportions and make as many balls as possible. You can make it into 10 if you have a large oven.
• 🍴Line a baking tray with parchment paper. You will need multiple pans or trays, as all the knots will not fit in one baking tray. Do remember, once the knots rise again, you can not lift them off the surface.
• 🍴Place the knots in the tray spaced well apart. Cover them with a clean cloth and allow them to double in size again.
