Though roasting garlic is a little time consuming, it really is very easy to do. Simply slice a ¼" off of the entire head of garlic, sprinkle with a little olive oil and salt, wrap in foil and bake.

What you get are creamy, sweet cloves of garlic that add a wonderful flavor to any dish; especially these Roasted Garlic & Rosemary Twice Baked Potatoes.

Ingredients Needed

For this recipe you will need:

  • medium Russet potatoes
  • a full head of garlic
  • EVOO
  • whipped butter
  • fresh rosemary
  • milk
  • Kosher salt
  • black pepper

Roasted Garlic & Rosemary Twice Baked Potatoes

How do you make Roasted Garlic & Rosemary Twice Baked Potatoes?

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Wrap each potato in aluminum foil and pierce a few holes in the potato to allow steam to escape; then bake 45-60 minutes.

To save time, you can also cook in the microwave on a paper towel lined plate. 

Next, remove excess skin from the garlic head, cut off ¼" from the top; then sprinkle with some olive oil and salt. Cover the entire bulb with foil and bake for 35-40 minutes.

When the potatoes are cooked through and soft, cut them in half lengthwise, scoop out the fleshy potato and place in a bowl; then place the potato skins on a baking sheet.

Next, carefully remove the garlic from the oven and gently squeeze the garlic pulp into the potatoes. Add the butter, rosemary and milk and mash until creamy.

Depending on the actual size of your potatoes, add more milk as needed. Season with salt and pepper. Place the mashed potatoes back into the potato skins and bake for an additional 10 minutes

To save time during the week, you can bake the potatoes and garlic the night before; then mash, stuff and refrigerate overnight until you're ready to bake.

My family and I really enjoyed these Roasted Garlic & Rosemary Twice Baked Potatoes.

And I really liked that each half was only 2 points on the new Weight Watchers Points Plus Program; which I recently started following again. 

You can serve these stuffed potatoes with any meal, but I served mine with a Gremolata Roasted Turkey Breast and Gremolata Roasted Cauliflower.
