Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound pizza dough
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • For Marinara Sauce:
  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  8. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  9. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  10. While the knots are baking, prepare the marinara sauce. In a small saucepan, combine tomato sauce, minced garlic, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper.
  11. Heat the sauce over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until warmed through.
  12. Serve the warm garlic knots with the marinara dipping sauce.
