GARLIC KNOTS

Published Date: August 13, 2020 | Last Updated: March 22, 2023
These are insanely good! So soft with such savory flavor. And I like how they are totally adaptable. They can be formed into knots, rolls, or breadsticks. You can tweak the amount of seasonings to your taste. (Are you a garlic lover or a garlic avoider?) I took these recently to a church dinner and they literally didn’t even make it onto the buffet table because people were taking them from my tray before they could get there! Huge crowd pleaser!

Notes:
*I always recommend a high-quality unbleached bread flour such as @lehimills or @kingarthurflour (IG handles)
*If you do not have coconut oil, you could make them with Avocado oil.
*I haven’t tried this recipe with Whole Wheat flour but I am sure it would work! 👍🏼
*As always, I use a @boschmixers and highly recommend using one (not sponsored)
