Pillow like Soft Garlic Knots, I see them as a gift sent from above. I get excited when baking garlic knots and can’t wait for these beauties to be on the table for me to devour.
Making Soft Garlic Knots
The worst Garlic Knots are the dry and flavorless ones, those you often find in fast food restaurants.
Nothing beats homemade.
These Soft Garlic Knots are fluffy, the butter and parsley flavor exist in every bite, and the golden color makes the soft garlic knots the star in parties and a reason to show off.
I like my garlic knots plain when just out of the oven, but I promise that it’s an excellent companion to your favorite dip or sauce based recipe.
Follow me on Instagram, and if you happen to make any of my recipes, please post the picture and mention me in your post, or use this hashtag #munatycooking. I would love to see your creation.
