Learning how to roast garlic is easy and this step by step tutorial will have you making and adding roasted garlic to everything! Is is perfect for spreading on bread, adding to dips, salads, pizzas, pastas and just about anything.
Cut about 1/4 inch off the top of the head of garlic to expose the cloves.
Place garlic head in a muffin tin or on a piece of foil
Drizzle with olive oil, wrap up tightly in foil.
Place in oven and bake for 40-45 minutes until cloves are golden brown, caramelized and soft.
Allow to cool and then squeeze cloves out of the skin.
Notes
If you prefer, you can place the heads of garlic on a piece of foil, wrap them up tight to prevent the oil from leaking out, forming a foil packet. Place them on a small baking dish or baking sheet. I will use this method if I am only roasting one head of garlic.
