Roasted Broccoli with Garlic

Roasted broccoli with garlic is an easy and flavorful way to make garlic in the oven. The broccoli comes to perfectly crispy while the roasted garlic comes out mild and sweet.

This recipe for roasted broccoli with garlic has been my go-to for several years now. It’s easy enough that both my husband and I can toss it together without a recipe and our kids are so used to seeing it on their plates that they will occasionally even eat the garlic.

I love it because roasted broccoli with garlic tastes so much better than steamed broccoli. There were many years in my marriage where we ate steamed broccoli multiple times a week because it was my husband’s favorite vegetable. 

I don’t think we have steamed our broccoli since we discovered roasting. Like roasted cauliflower, it adds a whole depth of flavor and texture that doesn’t even compare to steamed broccoli. (Update: we also love broccoli in our air fryer!)

Some of our other favorite vegetable recipes are Air Fryer Cauliflower, honey roasted carrots, roasted root vegetables, green beans with cartelized shallots, instant pot artichokes, and buttered carrots.
