Garlic Knots

What happens with the extra pizza dough when you make the Pear and Bleu Cheese Tart? You make garlic knots!

I really didn’t want the extra dough to go to waste the other evening. We were having lasagna and I thought these would be a nice addition to our meal.

Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture before we dove in to them. But I did grab one of the last two left!

Garlic Knots

1/2 of pizza dough recipe

1 stick of salted butter, divided

1 teaspoon granulated garlic

1 teaspoon dried parsley

Directions: Preheat oven to 425 degrees. While oven is preheating, put cast iron skillet with 1/2 stick butter in oven. Divide the dough in to twelve pieces. Take each piece and roll in to a 6-7 inch log. Then tie the log in to a knot. Throw a towel over them while you wait on the oven. Melt the other 1/2 stick of butter and add garlic and parsley. When oven is preheated, add rolls. Space them evenly. Brush on melted butter mixture. Pour any extra melted butter in to skillet. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Enjoy!
