Garlic baked in an air fryer
Air fryer roasted garlic is made with just four ingredients and takes less than 30 minutes to prepare. You will be amazed at how easy it is to make this recipe for roasted garlic in the air fryer, and you will love it.
I always ask myself why I don’t make roasted garlic more frequently. Making it is quite easy. All you need is a little time and four items. The supplies and procedures needed to roast garlic in an oven and an air fryer are same; the air fryer takes roughly half as long to cook. Because it works so fast, I love to use my Ninja Foodi whenever I can!
The garlic will start to caramelize and turn golden brown after 20 to 25 minutes in the air fryer (any brand will do). Garlic loses all of its potential bitterness and becomes buttery in texture.
