-
Mix warm water, sugar and yeast together. Let that sit for 5 minutes.
-
Add flour and salt to the water, sugar, and yeast. Mix this until smooth. I use a Kitchenaid with dough hook, but by hand will work. Cover and keep in a warm spot for 10-15 minutes to let it rise.
-
On a floured surface, roll your dough out about 1/2 inch thick. I used a pizza cutter to cut the dough in half and then in strips (about 8-10 inches) for the garlic knots.
-
Roll the strips in your hands to look like ropes and then tie in knots.
-
Place the knots on a greased baking sheet and allow them to rise for another 10 minutes.
-
While resting melt the butter and mix together garlic spread. Spread over the knots.
-
Bake at 400 degrees for about 15-20 minutes until they start to get lightly brown.
-
When they come out brush again with garlic spread.

Prepare to share immediately.
