Pesto and Mozzarella Stuffed Garlic Knots

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 package of Pillsbury Thin Crust Pizza Dough
  • about ⅓ cup Pesto
  • 1 large ball of Mozzarella
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 3 cloves of Garlic
  • Marinara sauce for dipping

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Then roll out the dough into a big rectangle.
  • Spread a thin layer of pesto over the dough.
  • Cut the mozzarella into thin strips. Arrange the mozzarella along the edge of the dough and roll the dough up around the mozzarella and press to seal it. Use a knife to cut this section of dough free. Then slice it in half, tie in knots, and place on a baking sheet. Be sure to seal up the ends of the dough so that the mozzarella doesn't melt out.
  • Continue this process, using up all of the dough.
  • Melt the butter and stir in the garlic. Then brush all of the garlic knots with the garlic butter.
  • Place the garlic knots in the oven to bake for 12-18 minutes, until golden brown.
  • Warm up some marinara sauce for dipping and serve!
