Roasted garlic made in the Instant Pot may not be as golden brown in color as garlic roasted in the oven, but the flavor is still wonderful! Add some to mashed potatoes, aioli, garlic bread, or hummus — the possibilities are endless!

Ingredients

  • 1 large head garlic

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed

  • salt to taste

Directions

  1. Place a steamer basket in the bottom of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot). Add water up to the bottom of the steamer basket.

  2. Cut off top 1/4 inch of garlic head. Place head, cut-side up, into the steamer basket; drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Close and lock the lid. Select Poultry function according to the manufacturer's instructions; set the timer for 10 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

  3. Release pressure using the natural-release method according to the manufacturer's instructions, about 10 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Transfer garlic to a plate and let cool until easily handled, about 5 minutes. Squeeze garlic pulp into a glass jar and refrigerate.

Tips

Double or triple the recipe if desired. You can cook as many garlic heads as will fit in the basket.
