Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole garlic heads
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Remove the outermost layers of skin from the garlic heads, leaving the cloves intact.
Slice about 1/4 inch off the top of each garlic head to expose the individual cloves.
Place each garlic head on a piece of aluminum foil large enough to wrap it completely later.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil evenly over the top of each garlic head.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper over the garlic heads for seasoning.
Wrap the garlic heads completely in the foil, making sure they are well sealed.
Place the wrapped garlic heads on a baking sheet and transfer them to the preheated oven.
Bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the garlic is soft and fragrant.
Carefully remove the garlic heads from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes.
Unwrap the garlic from the foil. To serve, gently squeeze the bottom of the garlic head to release the roasted cloves. They should be soft and spreadable.
Serve as a spread on keto bread or as a flavorful addition to meats and vegetables.
