Servings: 4

Ingredients

Fresh parsley
1/4 cup, chopped
Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup, grated
Salt
1/2 teaspoon
Dried oregano
1 teaspoon
Garlic powder
1 teaspoon
Olive oil
3 tablespoons
Pizza dough
1 pound

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle about 1/4-inch thick.
  3. Cut the dough into strips, approximately 1 inch wide.
  4. Take each strip and twist it into a knot shape, tucking the ends underneath. Place each knot in a greased air fryer basket, ensuring they have some space between them.
  5. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, dried oregano, and salt. Mix well to create a flavorful garlic oil.
  6. Brush the garlic oil mixture generously over each knot, ensuring they are evenly coated for maximum flavor.
  7. Carefully place the basket in the air fryer and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the knots are golden brown and crispy to the touch.
  8. Once done, remove the knots from the air fryer and immediately sprinkle them with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley for a burst of flavor and color.
  9. Serve warm and enjoy these delightful bites, perfect for dipping in marinara sauce or your favorite pasta sauce!
