Instructions:

In large bowl, whisk together warm water and sugar. Sprinkle yeast on top and let bloom 5-10 minutes until foamy.
In mixer bowl, whisk together flour, xanthan gum, salt, and garlic powder.
Add yeast mixture and olive oil to dry ingredients. Mix with dough hook on medium speed for 3-4 minutes until dough comes together (it will be sticky).
Cover bowl with damp towel and let rise in warm place for 1 hour until doubled.
Meanwhile, mix melted butter, garlic, parsley, and salt. Set aside.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Punch down dough. On well-floured surface, roll dough to ½-inch thickness.
Cut dough into 1-inch wide strips, about 6 inches long.
To shape knots: Take one strip, tie it into a simple knot (like tying a shoelace once), leaving two ends sticking out.
Place knots 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets.
Brush with half the garlic butter mixture.
Cover and let rise 30 minutes until puffy.
Bake 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
Remove from oven and immediately brush with remaining garlic butter.
Serve warm.
