Italian Knot whole wheat Garlic bread


Garlic knots

About:

This is a classic Italian snack, garlic knots are strips of pizza dough tied in.  Here in this recipe to make knots I used whole wheat flour in the dough and olive oil and olive spread but feel free to use plain flour and butter if desired. Plain flour definitely gives a soft texture inside and easy to handle but using wheat flour makes it healthy and without much compromising in taste- crusty on outside, soft inside and the garlic olive oil soaked flavour.

Enjoy this during the evening snacks or even on the party tables with Italian platter.
