Gluten-Free Garlic Knots

Prepare the gluten-free yeast dough.

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. On a floured surface, with floured hands, roll each piece of dough into a strip about 10 inches long. Lightly butter the inside of 8 muffin cups of a standard muffin pan. Set aside.

Fold each strip of dough into a knot and place each in a buttered muffin cup. (You could also set these on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.) Cover the dough loosely with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap. Let the knots rise for 1 hour.

Halfway through the rising time, preheat oven to 350°F.

Mix together the melted butter, Italian seasoning, and crushed garlic in a small bowl. Use a pastry brush to brush the garlic butter over each knot.

Bake for 16-18 minutes or until done. Brush with extra butter if desired and serve immediately.
