Ingredients
Scale
115 grams sourdough discard
80 grams whole milk
12 grams honey
13 grams olive oil
200 grams all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 to 4 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
Instructions
Whisk together the sourdough discard, milk, honey, and olive oil in a mixing bowl until well combined.
Add the flour, garlic powder, and salt to the wet mixture. Stir until everything is just combined.
Knead the dough in the bowl or on a lightly floured surface for about 3 minutes until it becomes smooth.
Shape the kneaded dough into a ball and lightly coat a bowl with 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Place the dough inside, cover, and let it rest for about 2 hours.
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rope and tie into a knot. Place on a baking sheet.
Brush the surface of each knot with remaining olive oil.
Allow the knots to rest for about 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Bake the knots for 12 to 14 minutes until light brown.
Melt the butter in a saucepan, add minced garlic, and cook for 1-2 minutes. Stir in salt and dried parsley.
Brush the baked knots with warm garlic butter.
