Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 large Egg (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon Water (for egg wash)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually stir in the milk until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Lightly flour a clean surface and place the dough on it. Gently knead the dough 3-4 times to bring it into a cohesive ball.
Roll the dough out into a rectangle approximately 8 inches by 10 inches. Sprinkle the chopped parsley, thyme, and garlic powder evenly over the surface.
Cut the dough into 8 equal strips. Twist each strip gently and tie it into a loose knot. Place the knots on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with the tablespoon of water to create an egg wash. Brush the egg wash over each knot to give them a golden-brown finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the knots are puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow the knots to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm as a side dish or snack.
