Air Fryer Roasted Garlic
Air Fryer Roasted Garlic is quick, easy, and full of flavor. Roast whole garlic bulbs in about 15 minutes for a simple kitchen staple.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 large garlic bulbs
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- Salt, optional
- Pepper, optional
- Fresh minced parsley, optional
Instructions
- Slice approximately ¼ to ½ inch from the top of each garlic bulb, exposing the tops of the cloves.
- Place each garlic bulb in the center of its own square of aluminum foil.
- Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over each bulb, allowing the oil to run between the cloves.
- Season with salt and black pepper, if desired.
- Wrap each bulb securely in the foil.
- Arrange the wrapped garlic bulbs in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
- Air fry at 400°F for 15 minutes.
- Carefully open one foil packet and test the garlic. The cloves should be very soft. If necessary, rewrap and cook for an additional 3 to 5 minutes.
- Allow the garlic to cool slightly. Gently squeeze the bottom of each bulb to release the roasted cloves from their skins.
- Sprinkle with fresh minced parsley, if desired, and serve or store for later.
Notes
- Cooking time may vary depending on the size of the garlic bulbs and your air fryer model.
- There is no need to peel the individual garlic cloves before roasting.
- Additional olive oil can be used, but avoid overfilling the foil packets to prevent oil from leaking into the air fryer.
- Store cooled roasted garlic in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Roasted garlic can be frozen for up to three months.
