Roasted Garlic
Roasting garlic creates a deep, mellow garlic flavor
Ingredients
- whole heads of garlic
- olive oil
Instructions
- Cut the top ends of the garlic head off to expose the cloves
- Place in a foil pouch, drizzle with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper to taste
- Close the pouch to hold in steam
- Place in a 390℉ air fryer for 10-15 minutes
- Carefully open the pouch and test the cloves for softness with a small knife. f cloves are not tender, continue to air-fry and check every 3-5 minutes until the desired tenderness is achieved.
- Once the cloves are tender and do not resist a small knife inserted into the clove, leave the pouch open and roast for an additional 5-10 minutes. Begin checking after 5 minutes until desired caramelization occurs.

Bake at 400 degrees for 30-40 minutes. Start checking for tenderness after 30 minutes. Continue until tenderness and caramelization are achieved. This can be done in a foil pouch or in a muffin pan, covering individual heads in foil.
