#SundaySupper with LAND O LAKES® — Buttery Garlic Knots

Simple and Fresh with LAND O LAKES® Olive Oil & Sea Salt

Simple and Fresh Summer Recipes

  • Buttery Garlic Knots
  • Compound Butter
  • Roasted Garlic

I’ve been involved with #SundaySupper for a while now and
was excited to hear that the group will be creating recipes for a new product
created by LAND O LAKES® – Butter Olive Oil & Sea Salt.  We were each asked what we thought would be a
creative, delicious recipe to make with the new butter.  Mine is called Buttery Garlic Knots, but they
aren’t like any ordinary Garlic Knots. 
 
They’re filled with herb and roasted garlic compound butter made with
this new product.  The butter comes in
handy half sticks so bringing it to room temperature is a snap.  It also makes for the perfect portion for
doing a sauce like a béchamel for mac and cheese.
The product is versatile,  it’s not just for making sauces but also for sauteing or frying.
The butter is rich and creamy and lent a delightful texture
to the garlic knots.  They were crispy on
the outside and tender on the inside, like a garlic knot should be.  At the end of this post there will links to
the rest of the #SundaySupper recipes. 
You should be able to create a complete meal from this list from appetizer,
main dish and sides.   LAND O LAKES® not only gave me (and the other
bloggers) a coupon for the full purchase price of the butter but also gave us a
coupon for one lucky readers!  It
could be you!!  Details will follow at
the end of the post.

To make Buttery Garlic Knots:

1 package of premade pizza dough (or you can use your
favorite pizza dough recipe)

2 half sticks of LAND O LAKES®  Butter with Olive Oil & Sea Salt
Assorted fresh herb to equal 2 tablespoons chopped,  I used parsley, oregano and basil
3-4 cloves roasted garlic – recipe follows
Bring the pizza dough and the butter to room
temperature.   Roll the pizza dough out
into a large rectangle. 
Chop the herbs finely, then add the roasted garlic and
mix thoroughly.  Mix with the softened
butter.  

Spread the butter/herb mixture over the rolled out pizza dough, only covering half.


<TIP>  You might not need all of the butter mixture. If the butter is spread too thick it might ooze out of the knot. If you have leftover butter it will keep in a plastic container in your fridge or use it to top grilled chicken or steak.

Fold
the pizza dough over, long end to long end. 

Take a pizza cutter and cut the dough into long slices.  Cut down the center of the dough then cut
each half in half until all the dough is cut into strips. 
Take each piece,
stretch slightly then tie into a knot. 
Fold ends under, to assure that the ends won’t get overdone.



Bake in a preheated 425 degree oven for 12-15 minutes.  The garlic knots can be served alone or dipped
into marinara sauce.
The butter will add a creaminess to the knots while the
herbs and the garlic will give just the right extra flavor. 
To make roasted garlic:
Take a head of garlic and cut it in half. Drizzle with olive
oil and wrap it in foil.  Roast in 400
degree oven for 50-60 minutes.  Roasting
the garlic will give it a sweet flavor and a very soft texture that will mix
into the butter and herbs easily.  Don’t worry about the salt in the butter,  it will enhance the flavor of herbs and
garlic.
