Ingredients
- Garlic bulbs as many as you want!
- Olive Oil approx 1 tablespoon per bulb
- Salt and Pepper a pinch on each bulb
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F
- Slice 1/4" inch off the top of the garlic.
- Place each bulb with the cut side up into each well of the muffin tin.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Drizzle with oil.
- Use the second muffin tin to cover the bulbs.
- Place into the oven and bake for 30-45 minutes - until the cloves are soft and like a paste.
- Remove the trays from the oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes.
- When the bulbs are cooled enough to handle, squeeze each clove out.
- To freeze : squeeze cloves into a souper cubes tray (see post) or into an ice cube tray.
- Once frozen, pop the frozen garlic cubes out and transfer to a freezer safe container.
Notes
Roasted garlic will last 3-6 months (depending how air tight your storage is) in the freezer.
