Follow The Directions
01
Step
In a medium bowl, combine the self-rising flour and Greek yogurt. Mix until a shaggy dough forms. (5 minutes)
02
Step
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface (using self-rising flour). Knead for 8 to 10 minutes, adding more flour as needed to prevent sticking. The dough should be smooth and elastic.
03
Step
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. (2 minutes)
04
Step
In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, and salt. Set aside. (3 minutes)
05
Step
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces (approximately 2 ounces each). Roll each piece into a 12-inch log. (5 minutes)
06
Step
Shape each log into a knot: create a cross with the dough, wrap the top piece around the bottom, and then connect and pinch the ends together to seal. (8 minutes)
07
Step
Place the knots on the prepared baking sheet and brush generously with the garlic butter mixture. (2 minutes)
08
Step
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the knots are lightly golden brown. (20 minutes)
09
Step
Remove from the oven and immediately brush with the remaining garlic butter. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm. (2 minutes)
For extra flavor, sprinkle the knots with Parmesan cheese before baking.
If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by combining 1 cup all-purpose flour with 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices in the garlic butter, such as oregano, basil, or red pepper flakes.
