How do I make these Garlic Knots?

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

In a medium bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in the warm water. Let stand until frothy, about 5-10 minutes. 

To the same bowl with the yeast, stir in the flour, and salt. Stir dough with a mixing spoon until dough forms into a ball.

Let the dough ball rest for in the bowl for at least 5 minutes. 

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead dough for a few minutes with floured hands until a nice smooth ball is formed. 

Roll the dough ball 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.
