Fast casual restaurant chain Papa [John’s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taco-johns-month-of-mucho) is best known for its pizza menu and signature appetizers like its garlic knots. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the fast food chain released the exact recipe for its famous garlic knots to the masses this past May, allowing at-home chefs to re-create the snack at home.

The super simple recipe calls for flour, yeast, garlic butter, salt, olive oil and warm water ingredients and is a budget-conscious alternative for consumers. The DIY garlic knots are described as the perfect side dish for classic or celebratory dinners and boast a recipe that is easy to follow and even easier to customize for those looking to create a larger serving than the eatery's go-to size.

With more consumers cooking at home, fast food chains are recognizing the importance of sharing signature recipes and offering a more diverse product range that goes beyond takeout.
