Preheat your air fryer to 350 degrees F.
In a small bowl, whisk together the garlic salt, dried basil, and onion powder. Set aside.
Unroll the pizza crust dough out onto a clean surface.
Cut the dough widthwise to make ten 1-inch rectangular strips. You don’t want to cut the strips the long way, because then the strips will be too long to create a nice knot.
Carefully wrap the middle of each strip around itself to create a knot. Tuck the loose ends behind itself. It should be a loose knot because you will not be able to pull the knot to tighten it.
Lightly spray all the knots with the olive oil spray.
Sprinkle the combined spices over all the knots (a small pinch of spices per knot) and then place them in the air fryer.
Bake in the air fryer at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 5-6 minutes or until the knots turn golden brown.
When the knots are done in the air fryer, spray them lightly with a little more olive oil or melted butter and then top with parmesan cheese and/or parsley, optional.

NOTE: All air fryers cook differently. You may need to increase the temperature slightly or cook for a few minutes longer.

Storage:

To Store: Store any leftover garlic knots in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. If you don’t use them in that amount of time, place them in the refrigerator for 6-7 days
To Freeze: Garlic knots can be frozen for up to 3 months if placed in a freezer-safe bag or container.
To Reheat: Reheat garlic knots in the air fryer at 350 F for 1-4 minutes depending on the temperature of the garlic knot.
