Serves 8
1 package Trader Joe’s premade pizza dough
4 tablespoons (half stick) of salted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves minced garlic
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Red pepper flakes (optional)
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
2. Roll + cut dough into 1”x5” strips. Form into knots and place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake for 12 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, melt butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes, and immediately remove from heat.
4. Transfer baked knots to a bowl and pour garlic-butter mixture evenly over the knots. Serve hot with marinara to dip!
