Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 whole garlic bulb
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer: Set your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to preheat to ensure even cooking.
  2. Prepare the garlic bulb: Slice off the top portion of the garlic bulb to expose the individual cloves, which allows the flavors to infuse and the cloves to roast evenly.
  3. Season the garlic: Drizzle 1 teaspoon of olive oil over the exposed cloves, ensuring they are well coated. Sprinkle salt to taste to enhance the flavor.
  4. Wrap for roasting: Wrap the garlic bulb in aluminum foil, leaving the top slightly open to allow steam to escape while retaining enough heat for proper roasting.
  5. Roast in the air fryer: Place the wrapped garlic bulb into the air fryer basket and cook for 25-30 minutes until the cloves are soft and have turned a golden color.
  6. Cool and serve: Allow the roasted garlic to cool slightly, then squeeze out the softened cloves from the bulb and use them as a flavorful addition to your favorite dishes.

Notes

  • You can adjust the cooking time slightly depending on the size of the garlic bulb and desired softness.
  • Use aluminum foil safely in your air fryer—avoid covering vents or blocking airflow.
  • Roasted garlic can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to one week.
  • Use the roasted garlic as a spread on bread, an addition to sauces, mashed potatoes, or salad dressings.
