  • Place the garlic heads in an oven safe bowl or baking pan. The heads of the exposed garlic heads should face up.
  • Drizzle one tbsp of olive oil on each garlic. If I am feeling a bit generous, I will drizzle a little extra olive oil.

  • Sprinkle one tsp of sea salt on top of the garlic heads.
  • If you are using glass bakeware, roast the garlic for 45 minutes. If you are using metal bakeware, roasting time should decrease to 30 minutes.
  • Remove the bakeware from the oven and allow the garlic to cool for five minutes before integrating into your recipe. The gorgeous golden brown garlic cloves will be delicate and soft to the touch. I hope you enjoy this Roasted Garlic Recipe!
