Ingredients
Scale
1 (16.3 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 cloves garlic, minced finely
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus extra for topping
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Pinch of salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Open the biscuit dough can and separate the biscuits. Cut each biscuit in half horizontally to create two thinner rounds.
Gently stretch or roll each half-biscuit piece slightly, then twist it into a knot shape. Place the knots onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small space between them.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the knots are lightly golden brown.
While the knots bake, prepare the garlic butter topping. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and salt. Stir well.
Remove the hot knots from the oven. Immediately brush the tops generously with the garlic butter mixture.
Sprinkle the tops of the warm knots with the extra grated Parmesan cheese and dried parsley.
Serve these cheesy bread appetizers warm.
Notes
For extra flavor, roast the garlic before mincing it for a deeper, sweeter garlic taste.
If you prefer a softer texture, cover the baked knots with foil for the first 5 minutes of baking.
These knots pair well with your favorite Italian dishes or creamy garlic pasta sauce.
