Ingredients
Scale
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
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Shape the knots: Divide the dough into ten equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rope and then tie each rope into a knot.
- 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.
- Prepare for baking: Brush each knot generously with melted butter, then sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley and a pinch of flaky sea salt.
- 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.
