Ingredients

  • Garlic
  • Olive Oil
  • Salt/Pepper optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°
  • Remove some of the loose papery outer skin.
  • Cut off the garlic top exposing the inner cloves.
  • Wrap the garlic in foil and place in an oven safe ramekin or baking dish.
  • Drizzle 1-2 Tablespoons of olive oil over each head of garlic and seal the foil over the top.
  • Bake garlic for about 40-45 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and golden brown.
  • Allow garlic to cool then squeeze the garlic and the cloves will pop right out. Or use a cocktail fork to remove each clove individually. (my preferred method)

Notes

Add salt and pepper with the olive oil if desired.
If roasting a large batch of garlic use a muffin pan.
