EQUIPMENT
- Baking Sheet
- Parchment Paper
- Rolling Pin
- Pizza Cutter or Knife
INGREDIENTS
- ⅔ cup self-rising flour
- ⅔ cup 0% Greek yogurt
- ¼ teaspoon garlic salt
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
- 2 tablespoons minced parsley
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- Low Calorie Marinara, Pesto, or Alfredo Sauce (optional, for serving)
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, yogurt, and garlic salt. Mix until well combined.
- Form the mixture into a dough ball.
- Lay a piece of parchment paper on the countertop. Place the dough in the center, sprinkle with a little flour, and top with a second piece of parchment paper.
- Use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a large rectangle, about ¼ inch thick.
- Remove the top layer of parchment paper and use a pizza cutter or knife to slice the dough into 19 pieces (1 long cut and 8 short cuts).
- Take each strip of dough and tie it into a knot, placing it on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat until all 19 knots are formed.
- In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, and salt. Using a basting brush, brush the garlic butter mixture over the top of each dough knot (alternatively, you can dip the top of each knot into the butter mixture).
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces.
