Amazing Gluten-Free Garlic Knots Recipe for Delicious Parties Recipe

Introduction

These Amazing Gluten Free Garlic Knots are perfect for parties or a tasty snack. Soft, flavorful, and easy to make, they bring a delicious twist to classic garlic bread without the gluten.

Ingredients

• 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 2 tsp active dry yeast
• 3/4 cup warm water (110°F / 43°C)
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
• 2 tbsp melted butter
• Flaky sea salt (to taste)

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a bowl, combine the warm water and yeast; let it sit until frothy, about 5 minutes.
2. Step 2: Stir in the gluten-free flour, olive oil, garlic powder, and salt until a sticky dough forms.
3. Step 3: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and gently knead for about 2 minutes.
4. Step 4: Divide the dough into ten equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rope and tie into knots.
5. Step 5: Place the knots on a greased baking sheet and let them rise in a warm place for 20 minutes.
6. Step 6: Brush melted butter over each knot, sprinkle with fresh parsley and flaky sea salt, then bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Tips & Variations

• For extra flavor, add a pinch of dried oregano or Italian seasoning to the dough.
• Try using garlic-infused olive oil instead of plain olive oil for a richer garlic taste.
• If you don’t have fresh parsley, substitute with dried parsley or chopped fresh basil.
• Make sure the water is warm but not hot, to activate the yeast properly without killing it.

Storage

Store the garlic knots in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To keep them fresh longer, refrigerate for up to 4 days. Reheat in a warm oven (350°F / 175°C) for 5–7 minutes to restore their softness and flavor.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use regular flour instead of gluten-free?

Yes, you can substitute with all-purpose flour if gluten is not a concern. You may need to adjust the water slightly since gluten flour absorbs liquid differently.

Can I prepare the dough in advance?

Yes, you can prepare the dough ahead of time and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours. Allow it to come to room temperature and rise before shaping and baking.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Dough

• 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 2 tsp active dry yeast
• 3/4 cup warm water (110°F / 43°C)
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• flaky sea salt (to taste)

Topping

• 2 tbsp melted butter
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

1. Activate the yeast: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a bowl, combine warm water and active dry yeast. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy, indicating that the yeast is active.
2. Make the dough: Stir in the gluten-free flour, olive oil, garlic powder, and salt until a sticky dough forms. Mix thoroughly to combine all ingredients.
3. Knead the dough: Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it for about 2 minutes to develop a smooth texture without overworking it.
4. Shape the knots: Divide the dough into ten equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rope and then tie each rope into a knot.
5. Let the knots rise: Place the knots on a greased baking sheet, cover them loosely, and allow them to rise in a warm place for 20 minutes until slightly puffed.
6. Prepare for baking: Brush each knot generously with melted butter, then sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley and a pinch of flaky sea salt.
7. Bake the garlic knots: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the knots turn golden brown and cooked through.

Notes

• Ensure the water used to activate the yeast is warm but not hot to avoid killing the yeast.
• Use a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend that contains xanthan gum or add it separately if your blend does not include it.
• You can substitute fresh garlic for garlic powder if preferred; use 2 cloves minced.
• These knots are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days and warmed before serving.
• For a dairy-free version, substitute melted butter with olive oil or vegan butter.
