Ingredients

1 Bulb garlic
2 teaspoons Olive oil
1 sprig of fresh thyme
Salt and pepper

Instructions

Preheat a 350 degrees F.
Cut off the top (the end without roots) ¼ inch of the garlic bulb to expose just the tips of the cloves.
Place the prepared garlic bulbs in a clay garlic roaster or in tin foil.
Place fresh herbs on the garlic bulbs, then season with salt and pepper
If using a clay roaster, place the lid on the dish, but if using the foil method, wrap the garlic bulb with foil and place it on a baking dish.
Bake for 40 to 55 minutes.

Notes

Roasted garlic can be used instead of fresh garlic for most recipes. It is easier to digest and adds a warm creaminess to mashed potatoes, soups, dips, etc.
