In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Stir the mixture until a dough begins to form.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the kneaded dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
Once the dough has risen, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Punch down the dough to release any air bubbles, then divide it into 12 equal pieces.
Roll each piece of dough into a rope about 6 inches long. Tie each rope into a knot and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the vegan butter. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped parsley and black pepper.
Brush the garlic butter generously over the shaped knots.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the knots are lightly golden brown.
Once baked, remove the garlic knots from the oven and brush them again with the remaining garlic butter.
Serve warm and enjoy these delectable vegan garlic knots as a side or appetizer.
