Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Peel off the loose outer layers of skin from each garlic bulb, leaving the cloves intact and the bulb whole.
Using a sharp knife, slice the top 1/4 inch from each garlic bulb to expose the tops of the individual cloves.
Place each garlic bulb on a sheet of aluminum foil, cut-side up.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the top of each garlic bulb, ensuring the oil seeps into the exposed cloves.
Sprinkle each bulb with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Lay one rosemary sprig next to each garlic bulb on the foil.
Wrap each garlic bulb tightly in the foil, forming sealed packets.
Place the foil-wrapped garlic bulbs on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the cloves are soft, golden, and caramelized when pierced with a knife.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before handling.
Unwrap the foil packets and serve the roasted garlic warm. Squeeze it out of the cloves as a spread or use it to enhance your favorite dishes.
