Then place on baking sheet in preheated oven.
Bake about 40 minutes until soft and slightly browned.
Remove from oven and allow to cool about 10 minutes.
Instant pot roasted garlic:
Slice tops off garlic bulbs and drizzle with olive oil like you would with the oven method.
Add 1 cup of water to the instant pot and place trivet in the instant pot.
Put garlic bulbs on trivet, press manual setting on high and make sure valve is set to the sealing position.
Cook on high pressure 10 minutes and naturally release for 10 minutes before carefully releasing the remaining pressure.
