Garlic Knots

Yay! These rolls are easy to make, pretty, and tasty.

2 1/2 t yeast 
1 C warm water

Dissolve yeast in water, let rest 5 minutes.

1 C wheat flour 
1 1/2 C all-purpose flour
2 T olive oil
1 t salt
2 t sugar

Combine the above ingredients and add in your dissolved yeast. Knead dough 5 minutes. Let rise in a covered, lightly oiled bowl for 1 hour (or until doubled).

When dough has risen, roll it out into a 10x10 inch square and cut into 10 strips. To make a roll, tie a knot and pinch the ends in underneath.

Tie knot

Tuck ends under

Cover the rolls and let rest for 30 minutes. Bake at 400 for 15 minutes.

But you aren't done yet! Now make your garlic butter topping:

4-6 cloves garlic
2 T butter, melted
2 T olive oil
1/4 C parsley, chopped
1/2 t salt

Toss rolls in butter topping (or just pour butter over rolls to avoid burning your fingers on hot bread). Then eat.

Pretty!
