Description

Imagine warm, golden knots, fresh from the oven, their surfaces glistening with melted butter and flecks of fragrant garlic. These aren't just any rolls; they're a savory indulgence, perfect as a comforting side dish or a satisfying snack any time of day. The aroma alone is enough to entice, a promise of the delightful flavors that await.

Each knot is soft and pillowy on the inside, offering a tender chew that gives way to a slightly crisp exterior. The buttery glaze, infused with the pungent kick of garlic, seeps into every crevice, ensuring each bite is an explosion of flavor. A hint of salt balances the richness, creating a harmonious blend that is both comforting and addictive.

For optimal results, consider preparing the dough ahead of time and allowing it to chill in the refrigerator. This resting period allows the flavors to meld and the dough to develop a more complex character, resulting in an even more delicious final product. While these garlic knots are undeniably best enjoyed fresh from the oven, their tempting taste lingers for days when properly stored.

They become a delightful treat to grab whenever cravings strike. They make a wonderful accompaniment to a hearty pasta dish, a comforting bowl of soup, or even as a standalone snack alongside a simple salad. Feel free to experiment with different herbs, such as parsley, oregano, or basil, to add your own personal touch and create a unique flavor profile that suits your taste.

A sprinkle of parmesan cheese adds a salty, nutty dimension that complements the garlic and butter perfectly. These garlic knots aren't just about satisfying hunger; they're about creating moments of pure culinary joy, shared with loved ones or savored in solitude. They are a testament to the simple pleasures of life, where humble ingredients are transformed into something truly special and memorable.

Instructions

    1.
    In a stand mixer, combine the almond flour, salt, oregano, xanthan gum, and eggs. Mix until you have a crumbly mixture.
    2.
    In a small pot over low heat, combine the cream cheese and mozzarella cheese. Continually stir the cheeses over the heat until they fully melt and combine.
    3.
    Blend the melted cheeses into the almond flour mixture in your stand mixer. If you have one, you may need to use a dough hook attachment to fully incorporate the cheeses. Otherwise, you can finish kneading the dough by hand in the bowl. It will be warm and sticky.
    4.
    Transfer the finished dough onto a piece of plastic wrap. Tightly wrap your dough, and form it into a square/rectangular shape. Place the dough in your refrigerator to cool for at least 6 hours. Overnight refrigeration is okay too!
    5.
    When you dough is cooled and ready to form, preheat your oven to 350 degrees and spray a 12-ct muffin tin with pan spray. Prep your dough by slicing your cooled square/rectangle into 12 pieces. Form each piece into a ball.
    6.
    To create a knot, gently roll and pull each dough ball into a 6-8 inch rope. If your dough is ripping, you may need to warm it in your hands slightly, and make sure to pull gently. Then, loop the ends to create a “pretzel” shape and pull the knot tight. You can see the steps in this photo.
    7.
    Place all completed garlic knots in their own muffin tin. Melt your butter in a small bowl and mix in the garlic. Use a pastry/grilling brush to spread the garlic butter over each knot. Then, top each knot off with ¼ tsp parmesan cheese.
    8.
    Bake the garlic knots for 35-40 minutes until the tops are golden brown. Allow to cool slightly so they finish baking through after they are pulled out of the oven. You can store the garlic knots in a ziploc bag after they have fully cooled, and you can reheat them in a microwave.
