Ingredients

  • 16 ounces fresh sourdough pizza dough
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Optional: parmesan cheese
  • Optional: marinara sauce

Instructions

  • Remove dough from refrigerator at least one hour before using and allow to come to room temperature.
  • Line a baking sheet with Silpat mat or parchment paper.
  • Using a pizza cutter or bench scraper, slice dough into 16 1-inch strips then roll each strip into an 8-inch long rope. Carefully tie each rope into a knot, leaving the two ends of the knot out or tucking them underneath. Place knots on baking sheets.
  • Lightly cover knots with dish towel and rest for 45 to 60 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a bowl, mix together butter, garlic powder, oregano, and salt. Brush onto the knots and place remaining mixture to the side.
  • Bake knots for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and brush with remaining butter. Optional: sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
  • Serve plain or with marinara sauce.
  • Store at room temperature for two days or in the refrigerator for up to one week. Can wrap individually and freeze for up to three months.
