Garlic parmesan knots are so easy to make. A tube of refrigerated biscuit dough is tied into knots and topped with melted butter, parmesan, and dried herbs. These biscuits couldn’t be simpler!

Serve these biscuits with homemade bacon and squash soup, or instant pot chicken chili. These are the perfect easy side dish to serve with Thanksgiving turkey and our favorite holiday side dishes.

Recipe Ingredients

BISCUIT DOUGH: A tube of refrigerated country biscuit dough is perfect for this recipe. I used the Pillsbury brand which is the most common one available at the majority of grocery stores. It is important to grab a biscuit dough to get the right texture for the parmesan knots.

ADDITIONS: With just a few additions, these knots will have lots of flavor using melted butter, grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried oregano, dried parsley and salt.

How To Make Garlic Parmesan Knots

Here’s a quick overview of this recipe with full instructions in the recipe card at the bottom of this post.

  1. Roll each piece of refrigerated biscuit dough into a thin strip. Tie it into a knot and tuck the ends underneath until it forms a ball.
  2. Brush the top with a combination of melted butter, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried oregano and dried parsley. Bake until golden brown, brushing the tops with the melted butter mixture halfway through.

Leftover knots can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge and reheated in the oven or microwave.
