Air fryer roasted garlic has become a common occurance in our home since we got our air fryer. Roasting garlic has always been something I put off because of the time it occupies my oven. You can’t really do anything but roast garlic because the flavors infuse anything that is in the oven with it. My air fryer has helped make it easier to roast my garlic and still use my oven for baking other items as I need to without fear of the flavors transferring.

Why You Should Roast Garlic

Roasted garlic is wonderfully creamy and flavorful. It is slightly sweet yet savory at the same time. We don’t always think about garlic as something to indulge in or that it can even satisfy a craving. Yet it can.

Yes it has a distinct smell and to be honest you probably don’t want to kiss anyone that hasn’t indulged with you in this savory treat. (I’m lucky becuase Rick loves it as much as I do)

Ways that I Use Roasted Garlic

Since we got our Nuwave Brio Air Fryer, I have been using a lot of roasted garlic to season things like my Basic Low Carb Yeast Bread as well as adding it to my marinara sauce, alfredo sauce etc. It adds very few calories with lots of health benefits.

Why I Love Using My Air Fryer to Make Roasted Garlic

I have really been using our Air Fryer since we got it around Christmas. Making dishes like these Air Fryer Pepper Jack Chicken Poppers, Hubby Lovin Chicken strips from the Trim Healthy Table Cookbook, Super Crispy Chicken Wings, Burgers and awesome Oven Roasted Okra. I’m now adding Roasted Garlic to the list that just keeps growing.

I’d love to see what you are making in the THM Air Fryer Mama’s Unofficial Facebook Group. Just remember that it is a “Mama’s only” group and that you need to be a member of an official group to gain entry.
