Step 1

Remove any excess papery peel from a head of garlic (but still leave each clove covered.) Cut 1/4 inch off the top of a head, exposing the tops of the cloves underneath.

Step 2

Drizzle extra virgin olive oil onto the exposed parts of the cloves.

Step 3

Wrap the head of garlic in aluminum foil. Put it into the air fryer.

Step 4

Air fry at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Stop to check the doneness of the cloves. They should have a gentle give to them when they are ready. If they're not quite done, wrap them in foil again, and continue to cook in 5 to 10 minute increments until ready.

Step 5

Give the head of garlic a few minutes to cool before diving into it. Once it's cool, gently squeeze on each clove, and it will pop right out of its skin.

Step 6

Serve with warmed bread, use it in recipes instead of raw garlic, or put it on a pizza as a topping.
