How to Roast Garlic in the Air Fryer (Easy Recipe)
Ingredients
- 4 large heads of garlic
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- pinch black pepper
Instructions
- Slice off the tops of the garlic cloves, leaving their shells on.
- Place each clove in an aluminum foil sheet large enough to create a little garlic basket.
- In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, maple syrup, salt, and black pepper. Give it a good whisk.
- Drizzle this magical mixture over the garlic cloves.
- Wrap up the garlic cloves in aluminum foil, making sure they're evenly spaced in the air fryer basket to let that hot air work its magic.
- Pop them into the air fryer and roast the garlic for approximately 25 minutes.
- Once those golden, fragrant garlic cloves emerge from the air fryer, let them cool for a moment.
- Unwrap them from their foil blankets and give them a gentle squeeze to release the creamy, roasted goodness from their shells.
Donna's Notes
Always use fresh, plump garlic for the best flavor. Look for bulbs that are firm and free of sprouts or soft spots.
Make sure to space out the garlic heads in the air fryer basket to ensure proper air circulation. Overcrowding can lead to uneven cooking.
