• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 11 to 13 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine butter, garlic, and olive oil in a small pan over medium-low heat. Cook until butter has melted, then stir to combine flavors.

• Plate the knots and pour any remaining liquid and garlic over top. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and salt.
