Easy Garlic Knots Recipe

To make these perfectly dippable bread sticks, use my recipe for homemade pizza dough or snag some premade dough from the store. 

So many pizzerias carry garlic knots, but where did they actually come from? Garlic knots first started appearing in New York City pizza shops in the 1940s. These little morsels were simply a way to not waste leftover pizza dough scraps. All hail a budget bite! 

What to Serve with this Garlic Knots Recipe

Garlic knots go with anything. It’s garlic and bread. How could it be wrong? I love making garlic knots when I make pasta. They go together perfectly. Here’s a few personal recommendations:

• Spinach mushroom alfredo pasta
• Chicken mushroom marsala pasta
• Creamy broccoli pasta recipe
• Creamy orzo

How Long do Garlic Knots Last?

Well, let’s just say they don’t last long in my home! If you are lucky enough to have leftovers, store them in an airtight container for up to a week. When you are ready to reheat them, pop them in the microwave for 30 seconds or bake them in the oven for a couple of minutes until warmed through.
