This Air Fryer Roasted Garlic is rich with a buttery and caramelized flavor that will elevate all of your favorite savory dishes. By using the air fryer to roast garlic, we can cut the roasting time in half!
Slice off the top portion of the garlic head, keeping the cloves intact but revealing them slightly.
Pour a drizzle of olive oil onto the exposed garlic cloves, then lightly sprinkle with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Wrap the whole garlic in foil.
Preheat the air fryer to 400F for about 5 minutes. When it is preheated, add the foil wrapped heads of garlic.
Air fry for 20-25 minutes or until caramelized and golden. Carefully remove the garlic using oven mitts or tongs, it will be hot.
Let it cool then remove the cloves from the skin with a knife, tiny spoon, or squeeze the cloves out. If not using immediately, refrigerate for up to 5 days.
Notes
Important Note about Salt: Not all salts are made equal and cannot be substituted 1:1. If you are substituting table salt for kosher salt, you will need to cut the amount called for in the recipe by at least half.
