Stages of cooking
-
Mix flour and Greek yogurt together in a medium bowl until a shaggy dough forms. Transfer to a surface dusted with more self-rising flour, and knead for 8 to 10 minutes. Continue adding flour as needed if the dough is too sticky.
-
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Combine melted butter, garlic, parsley, and salt in a small bowl.
-
Cut the dough into 8 pieces, roughly 2 ounces each. Roll each segment into an even 12-inch log. Shape the logs into knots by forming a cross, wrapping the top piece around the bottom piece, then connecting the two ends. Press together tightly to seal.
-
Move the knots to the prepared baking sheet and brush with garlic butter.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Brush with remaining garlic butter, garnish with more parsley, and serve warm.
