Steps:

• Ideal Slow Cooker Size: 1- to 2-Quart.
• Using a knife, cut off 1/4- to a 1/2-inch of the top of each head of garlic to expose the individual cloves. Remove some of the papery skins.
• Wrap tightly in aluminum foil and place in your slow cooker.
• Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours until tender. (The cloves should feel soft when pressed and should be easy to pierce with a sharp knife.)
• Remove the garlic from the slow cooker and let it cool enough so you can touch it without burning yourself then squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins.
