Ingredients

  • 1 Premade Pizza Dough like Pillsbury Pizza Dough
  • 1 tablespoon Parmesan Cheese
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Onion Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
  • 1 tablespoon Chopped Fresh Parsley

Instructions
 

  • Roll out the premade pizza dough and slice them into 12 strips about 1 ½” to 2” wide.
  • Fold the dough in half so the rectangles measure 1”x12”.
  • Fold them into a knot shape and wrap the ends under and over making them into a circle knot shape.
  • Heat your air fryer to 360 degrees F
  • Add 6 dough knots into your air fryer basket, making sure that there is space between each knot.
  • Cook them at 360 degrees F for 5 minutes.
  • While the knots are cooking, add the salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and red pepper flakes to a small bowl. Then add in the fresh chopped parsley and parmesan cheese.
  • Using a small whisk or fork, stir to combine the ingredients.
  • Remove the knots from the air fryer basket and bake the other 6 knots as you did before.
  • Once the knots are finished cooking, brush some olive oil over the top and sprinkle some of the garlic-parmesan mixture on the top as well.
  • Serve immediately with some pizza sauce, marinara sauce, or your favorite dipping sauce.
