Preheat oven to 400°F.
With your hands, peel the paper off the garlic to expose the cloves. Take care to keep the bulbs together so they don't break apart while you're peeling.
4 heads garlic
Take a sharp knife, cut the top of each garlic bulb straight off, about ½ inch from the top. This should cut into most of the cloves to expose the interior.
Top each bulb with ¼ tbsp of olive oil and massage it into the cut side of each bulb.
1 tbsp olive oil
Wrap each bulb in aluminum foil and place it into the wells of a muffin tin, cut sides up.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until each clove is tender.
To eat, pinch from the outside and the clove should come easily out of the skin.
