Tara’s Tips for Perfect Cauliflower Gnocchi Garlic Knots
First: Thaw gnocchi. Either by leaving the bag out at room temperature for a few hours or by placing your gnocchi on a microwaveable plate (make sure they aren’t touching each other). Microwave for one minute, flip them all over, microwave one more minute.
Second: Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Once preheated, place thawed gnocchi in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or silicone liner.
Third: Give your gnocchi a quick spray with olive oil spray.
Fourth: Sprinkle your gnocchi with 2 tsp garlic powder or granules, 1 tsp salt, and 2 tsp Italian Seasoning. Give them a gentle stir on the pan. Make sure they are not touching each other.Β
Fifth: Put your seasoned pan of gnocchi in your 425 degree oven. Set a timer for 10 minutes. When your timer goes off, flip each gnocchi so that another side browns. Set timer for another 10 minutes.
Sixth: After 20 minutes of baking, carefully transfer your cauliflower gnocchi garlic knots from the baking sheet to a bowl or plate. Serve with marinara dipping sauce. Enjoy!
