A Homemade Garlic Knots Recipe That Tastes Like the Restaurant!

What’s In These Garlic Knots with Olive Oil
I get fresh produce from my garden and from Misfits Market– they sell fantastic fruit, vegetables, & pantry staples at a discounted price. We get Misfit boxes every other week and love picking out favorite produce for delivery. Get $10 off your first box here!
- Instant Yeast: I recently tried out this instant yeast on a whim (normally I buy active dry) and I absolutely love it! Instant yeast is great for both overnight breads and this easy quick garlic knots recipe too!
- All purpose flour: I like to use this flour which is amazing for baking anything: breads, cakes, muffins, etc. It’s my absolute go-to flour, and what I use to feed my sourdough starter.
- Fine SeaSalt: I like a fine ground sea salt for baking. Normally I like Himalayan salt, but I find that a fine grain salt distributes more evenly in breads and cakes.
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil: I like to use this fruity olive oil which has a fantastic flavor and deep color- it’s really inexpensive online here, so I keep a few liters stocked up in my pantry. For the quality of oil you get, it’s an excellent value, I would highly recommend!
- Garlic Powder: Also a major pantry staple ingredient that gets used in our house daily! I love this garlic powder and add it to a lot of recipes that I would use fresh garlic in too.
- Parsley to top
Make Garlic Knots Vegan for a Plant-Based Version
These dairy free garlic knots is a simple way to get extra veggies in your diet. I’m all about making recipes plant-based when I can. Vegan cooking does NOT have to be bland, boring, or flavorless… It’s quite the opposite when done right.
By building meals around vegan pantry staples and swapping in a few plant-based ingredients you can make better meals for you and your family.
I made a list of my 125 favorite vegan pantry ingredients that we use on a weekly basis, and check out all my vegan recipes here that are on The Herbeevore. These easy and tasty recipes are fantastic meatless and dairy free meals for your table.
How Do I Make Garlic Knots Without Eggs?
- Add all ingredients (except garlic + parsley) to a large bowl. Mix well to combine the dough. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes, adding more flour if the dough is too sticky. Place the kneaded dough back into the bowl. Pour 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over the dough, and flip the dough to make sure it’s coated in the olive oil. Cover and let rest for 1 hour.
- When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Divide the dough in half, and each of the halves into 8 pieces. This recipe makes 16 knots. Take the dough for one knot, and roll it into a 9 or 10 inch strip with your palms. Take the two ends of the dough: make a loop with one end, and feed the other end through the loop to make a knot. Like you’re completing the first step of tying your shoes. Place the knot on the baking sheet, and repeat until all the knots are tied.
- Place the baking sheet in the oven, and bake for 18-24 minutes until the garlic knots are golden brown on top. Remove from oven.
- Brush each garlic knot with olive oil, raw garlic, and parsley. Enjoy!

Baking Sheet Pan

Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2.5 teaspoons instant yeast
- 1 1/4 cups warm water
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Himalayan sea salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil plus more for brushing
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- Fresh Parsley for garnish
Instructions
Add the warm water, yeast, and sugar to a large bowl. Allow to sit for 5 minutes until yeast blooms, and begins to foam. Add the flour, salt, and garlic powder to the bowl. Mix well with a wooden spoon to combine the dough.
Knead the dough for about 5 minutes, adding more flour if the dough is sticking to your hands. Place the kneaded dough back into the bowl. Pour 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over the dough, and flip the dough to make sure it's well coated in the olive oil. Cover and let rest for 1 hour.
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Divide the dough in half, and each of the halves into 8 pieces. This recipe makes 16 knots. Take the dough for one knot, and roll it into a 9 or 10 inch strip with your palms. Take the two ends of the dough: make a loop with one end, and feed the other end through the loop to make a knot. Like you’re completing the first step of tying your shoes. Place the knot on the baking sheet, and repeat until all the knots are tied.
Place the baking sheet in the oven, and bake for 18-24 minutes until the garlic knots are golden brown on top. Remove from oven.
Brush each garlic knot with olive oil, and top with raw garlic and parsley or chili flakes if desired. Mangia!
