- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Arrange the knots one inch apart in staggered rows on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Baking
- Bake the Knots: Bake in the preheated oven until the knots are deep golden, about 10-12 minutes.
Coating
- Prepare the Coating Mixture: While the knots are baking, combine the melted butter, finely chopped parsley, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, and kosher salt in a large bowl.
- Coat the Knots: After baking, immediately toss the warm knots in the butter mixture until they are well coated. Serve warm.
