Instructions
If roasting a whole head of garlic: 1 Preheat: Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F. 2 Prep the garlic: Slice the top off the head of the garlic (1/3rd from the top) and place it on a piece of aluminum foil. 3 Drizzle with oil: Pour olive oil over the garlic bulbs. If preferred, season with salt and black pepper. 4 Wrap: Wrap it tightly. It should look like a small pouch. 5 Roast: Place in the air fryer basket and air fry until garlic cloves are soft and creamy for 18 minutes. To check doneness, remove the pouch from the air fryer and carefully open it to let the steam out. Check the see if the garlic is fully roasted and soft. If not, wrap it tightly and let it air fry for 2 more minutes, keeping a close eye on it to prevent it from burning. 6 Cool and remove: Let it cool for 10 minutes, and remove the now-roasted garlic either by squeezing the whole head with your hands or removing each garlic clove with a small spoon. If roasting garlic cloves: 8 Preheat: Preheat the air fryer to 370 degrees F. 9 Prep the garlic: Remove the outer layer of the garlic bulb and break it into cloves. If you want to peel them, you can go ahead and do that at this point, but I find it easier to skip peeling as it is easier to remove the outer skin after they are roasted. 10 Use foil: Place garlic cloves onto a square sheet of aluminum foil. 11 Drizzle with oil: Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to make sure all the garlic cloves are equally coated with the oil and seasonings. 12 Wrap: Wrap it tightly to make it a pouch. 13 Roast: Place in the air fryer basket. Air fry for 10 minutes. To check doneness, open the pouch carefully and lightly squeeze one of the cloves. It should be soft. If not, wrap it tightly and air fry in 1-minute increments until fully softened. 14 Let cool: When done, take the pouch out and let it cool for a few minutes. Carefully open and let the steam out. 15 Squeeze out the garlic: Squeeze the now-roasted garlic out of each garlic clove by gently squeezing the garlic and removing it from its shell.View original recipe
