NSD, from the same authors. IMO.

If you can run those distinct functions (authoritative and recursive) on
different IPs, good, and that's recommended security practice in any event.
(The recursive server logically should be an inside machine and well
protected.)

If you cannot, then there are a couple of different ways of running both
daemons on the same IP. My favourite at the moment is to use dnsproxy.

But.... You said 'local LAN DNS'. This leaves me wondering whether you
really need a full-blown authoritative server for that use-case. In
case you were unaware, Unbound does do "stub-zones", which might be
enough for your local-LAN needs.

I respect Knot DNS, but have no direct experience with it.
