To make the Garlic Knots, prep up with all the ingredients first. Combine yeast, sugar and warm water.
Let it sit for 5 - 10 minutes. It looks like a thick creamy paste at this stage. In another few minutes (5-10 minutes) the mixture will become all frothy and bubbly.
Meanwhile, mix all the ingredients mentioned under garlic butter spread and keep aside.
In a bowl combine flour with salt and baking powder. Mix it well. Pour in yeast mixture to it and knead. Add a couple of teaspoons of oil if required.
Cover the dough and keep it aside for about 2 hours.
After 2 hours, the dough will have risen to be double in its size.
Dust the working surface with flour and knead the dough. Use your hands to flatten the kneaded dough to about 8 inches wide.
Cut the flattened dough into long strips of about 6-8 inch.
Preheat oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit/190 degree Celsius for 10 minutes.
Start knotting them by making a loose knot, you will still have dough left at both ends. Take the left end of the dough, wrap it over the knot and into the hole of the loose knot. Gently press it down such that the dough is secured within. Repeat the same with the right end -wrap it over the knot and into the hole. Press and secure both the ends.
Repeat the process with the rest of dough and shape all the garlic knots. Arrange them 2 inches apart on a baking tray like with baking sheet.
Brush all the rolls of garlic knot with garlic herb butter spread.
Bake for 12-15 minutes.
