How to Make the Air Fryer Garlic Knots

This garlic bread recipe is the quickest and easiest way to bake fresh bread at home. In a matter of minutes, you can cut, twist, top, and cook your dough into little handheld bites that are full of delicious flavor.

Whisk together the garlic salt, basil, and onion powder and set aside.
Unroll the pizza crust dough and cut it widthwise to make ten 1-inch rectangular strips.Pro Tip: You don’t want to cut the strips the lengthwise because then the strips will be too long to create a nice knot.
Wrap the middle of each strip around itself to create a knot and then tuck the loose ends behind itself.Pro Tip: You will create a loose knot because you will not be able to pull the knot to tighten it.
Spray all the knots with the olive oil spray.
Sprinkle spice mixture over all the knots (a small pinch of spices per knot).
Place them in the air fryer.
Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 5-6 minutes or until the knots turn golden brown. TIP: All air fryers cook differently. You may need to increase the temperature slightly or cook for a few minutes longer.
When the knots are done baking, spray them with a little more olive oil or brush with melted butter and then top with parmesan cheese and/or parsley, optional.
Serve and enjoy!
