  • 2 Tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil substitute with olive oil, avocado oil, or any other oil of choice
  • Salt to taste this is optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your air fryer to 380F/190C, cut some aluminum foil sheets that will be enough for the number of garlic heads you will be air frying.
  • Peel the papery outer layer of a garlic head, using a sharp knife cut about ½ inches of the garlic head so that top of all the cloves is exposed. Place each garlic bulb on the prepared foil sheets
  • Drizzle a little bit of olive oil over the garlic, and then sprinkle with salt if using. Wrap the foil around the garlic tightly to form a parcel.

    Let the roasted garlic cool slightly before squeezing out the cloves to use in your dishes.
