Guys. Guess what today marks? My 37th week of pregnancy.
Know what that means? At my appointment yesterday my doctor said, “feel free to have a baby any time now”.
My feet look like sausages, I waddle, my belly makes an appearance before the rest of me, I can’t really breathe. I’m done being pregnant. I’m not necessarily ready to have a baby, but I am definitely done being pregnant.
I am, however, thoroughly thankful that my complaints are minor and just discomforts. This pregnancy has went by so fast and yet it feels like we found out forever ago.
I have a couple pieces left to finish in her room (mostly the glider we’re waiting on that has been ordered for weeks) before I take pictures and show you.
Simple Garlic Knots
This past weekend I got in a cooking/baking mood, which hasn’t happened much lately. I made these amazing garlic knots to go with Crock Pot Chicken Alfredo. I almost halved the recipe but I’m so glad I didn’t. The knots are small so I didn’t feel bad about eating six of them.
Well, not too bad. To be fair, the baby had like four of those six.
These knots do require two rises, but it goes quick and it is totally worth it. There’s not much labor involved, just a little waiting. You’ll be so happy you made them.
I think I’m going to try them with some marinated garlic next time!

How do you suggest to warm them up again?
I just put them in the microwave for about 20 seconds.
These look so good! My best friend made a very similar recipe for me a while back except she brushed them with olive oil instead of butter and I just thought to myself “Why isn’t this butter.” So yeah, good call 🙂
haha butter makes it better! I am an olive oil lover, but some things need butter =)
Just made these – and they were fantastic! My kids kept wanting to grab them while they were hot! I made them to go with a soup – and half of them were gone before the soup finished.
Adding this to my recipes and pinning it too!
Yay – thanks for letting me know!
These were sooooo amazingly good. We’d planned on eating them with spaghetti but as soon as they were done my husband and I took them out to the front porch with glasses of wine and proceeded to eat every single one of these delectable morsels!
Wine + garlic knots sounds absolutely perfect!! Thanks for sharing =)
Can these be frozen after they are baked?? They are delicious by the way!!!
Thanks! I haven’t tried it, but I think you can freeze them after they’re baked. They should keep for about a month frozen. Just take them out the night before you want to use them to thaw, I think 🙂
Great!!! Thanks!! If I didn’t bake them first, I could freeze the dough right?
Yep – it’ll take a lil more planning, but it’ll work out even better that way 🙂
What can I use if I cannot find instant yeast?
Can I use just regular packet of star brand active dry yeast? Please let me know by e-mailing me at midnight0675@frontier.com
Hi Heather –
Yes, they can be used interchangeably, but active dry yeast has to be dissolved in water before you use it. Instant yeast can go straight into the dough. Hope that helps!
Hi. Normally you activate the yeast with water and sugar before adding dry ingredients. Are the directions correct? Just much all together?
Hi 🙂 yes, I used instant yeast in this one so it can all go in at once.
Hi there! I’m so excited to make these but it seems the dough has come out a little dry. Is this the usual case?
Hi, no it’s not usually dry. Let me know how they turn out!
What can I use if I don’t have any fresh minced garlic on hand? Can I use dried minced garlic or garlic powder?
Yep, either should work fine 🙂
