How do I make these Two Point Garlic Knots?

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Combine flour, and Greek yogurt, water, and egg in a large mixing bowl. 

Mix until all ingredients have been incorporated.

On a floured surface, knead for one minute until you form a large ball.

Let the dough sit for about 3 minutes.

Roll the dough out into a large rectangle.

Using a pizza cutter, cut 12 wide strips (about 3/4 inch) and form each strip into a rope.

Roll each strip into a dough rope.

Tie each rope into a loose knot.

Continue until 12 knots are made.

Place knots on a baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper or sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.

In a small bowl combine, large beaten egg, melted butter, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper, 1/4 tsp kosher salt. Whisk until well combined.

Using a basting brush, brush each knot with melted butter mixture or lightly spoon on top. 

Bake for 14-16 minutes or until lightly brown. 

Remove from oven.

Using a basting brush, brush tops of the cooled knots with melted butter.

• 2 cups self rising flour (I use Gold Medal)

Notes:

1. This recipe includes zero point foods therefore in order to calculate the point value you would use the WW recipe builder in the WW app instead of entering the nutritional information-otherwise the WW app doesn’t realize there is zero point items in the recipe and will calculate it based only off the nutritional info only which is not accurate.
2. Start by adding only 1/4 cup water and if the dough needs more-add more by the teaspoon- up to 1/2 cup total.
