Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 packet Active dry yeast
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 1 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, active dry yeast, and sugar. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5 minutes until the mixture becomes foamy.
Step 2
Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and gradually incorporate the all-purpose flour. Mix until a soft dough begins to form.
Step 3
Flour a clean surface and knead the dough for approximately 8 to 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Step 4
Lightly oil another bowl with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Place the dough in this bowl, turning it to coat with oil. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Step 5
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 6
Punch down the risen dough to release air bubbles. Divide it into small, equal-sized pieces, rolling each piece into a ball.
Step 7
Arrange the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between each one to allow for expansion.
Step 8
In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter. Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, and chopped fresh parsley.
Step 9
Brush each dough ball generously with the melted butter mixture.
Step 10
Bake the dough balls in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Step 11
Allow the dough balls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm as a delightful, low-sodium treat.
