Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the greek yogurt and stir to combine.
Transfer dough onto a flat, lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and stretchy, about 2 minutes. Cut into 8 equal pieces.
One at a time, roll each piece out into about a 10-12-inch log. Tie each log into a knot and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic, parsley and parmesan cheese. Brush the olive oil mixture on each garlic knot.
Bake in the preheated oven until the garlic knots puff slightly and become lightly golden, about 15-18 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes and enjoy with marinara or dipping sauce of choice.

Notes

My Top Tip: Knead the bread dough well! It will take a couple of minutes to do this by hand, and the dough should be smooth and stretchy. It may feel wet at first, but don't add more flour unless the dough sticks to your hands.

Storage: Store your garlic knots in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days, or in the fridge for 1 week.

Freezing: These garlic knots will keep well frozen for up to 3 months. When you're ready to eat, thaw them in the fridge overnight before reheating.
