Parmesan Garlic Knots
Parmesan Garlic Knots are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that will leave your taste buds wanting more. These savory knots are made with a combination of flour, yeast, garlic, butter, and Parmesan cheese, and are perfect for any occasion.
To make these Parmesan Garlic Knots, you will need the following ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
This recipe makes 12 knots, so adjust the ingredients accordingly if you need more or less.
To start, combine the flour, yeast, salt, and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Add the warm water and melted butter, and mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough for a few minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Next, add the minced garlic and Parmesan cheese to the dough, and knead until they are evenly distributed. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour.
Once the dough has risen, divide it into 12 equal pieces and roll each piece into a rope. Tie each rope into a knot and place the knots on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let the knots rise for another 15-20 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush the knots with melted butter and sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the knots are golden brown and cooked through.
These Parmesan Garlic Knots are best served warm, straight out of the oven. They have a crispy exterior and a soft, fluffy interior, with a delicious garlic and Parmesan flavor. They are perfect as an appetizer or as a side dish to any meal.
