Ingredients

Ingredients

  •  2 garlic bulbs 
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) canola oil 
  • 1 cup (250 mL) unsalted butter, softened 
  • 2 tsp (10 mL) minced fresh parsley 
  • ¼ tsp (1 mL) onion powder 
  • 1/4 cup (60 mL) freshly grated parmesan 
  • 2 tsp (10 mL) oil 
  • ½ tsp (2 mL) kosher salt 

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 400˚F (205˚C). 
  2. Peel and discard the outer layer of the whole garlic bulbs but leave the skins of the individual cloves of garlic. Using a sharp knife cut 1/4 to a 1/2 inch from the top of cloves to expose garlic cloves. 
  3. Drizzle each garlic bulb with canola oil and wrap individually in tin foil. 
  4. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until cloves look lightly browned and soft when pressed. Remove from oven, uncover tin foil and let cool. 
  5. When garlic are cool to touch, use a slotted spoon and scoop out cloves into a medium sized mixing bowl. Add butter, parmesan, parsley, and kosher salt. Beat using an electric hand mixer until light and fluffy. 

Tips

Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days in a sealed airtight container or freeze. Did you know you can freeze butter? Just add an extra layer of foil – unsalted butter will keep for 3 months and salted butter for a year.
