Roasted Garlic Butter
This creamy Roasted Garlic Butter is rich, flavorful, and unbelievably easy to make. Roast the garlic quickly in the air fryer, then whip it with a few simple ingredients for a smooth, spreadable butter. Perfect for steak, bread, pasta, sauces, and anything that needs a boost of garlicky goodness.

Equipment
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter softened and salted
- 10 cloves Roasted garlic I use my air fryer garlic bulb recipe
- ½ tsp 24 herb sprinkle seasoning
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped (or 1 tsp dried parsley)
- 2 tbsp milk optional
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients to a large bowl.
- Use a hand-mixer to incorporate. Blend until smooth.
- Serve the whipped butter in a bowl.
Notes
- Roast the garlic ahead of time. You can make it in the air fryer or oven a day or two in advance and keep it in the fridge. That way, the butter comes together in minutes.
- No hand mixer? No problem.Press the roasted garlic through a garlic press (or mash it well with a fork) before stirring it into softened butter. The key is getting the garlic smooth so it blends evenly.
-
- Use it beyond bread. Spoon it over steak, melt it onto roasted vegetables, swirl it into pasta, or use it anywhere you’d normally add butter for a savory boost.
- Change the flavor profile: add cajun seasoning for a NOLA flavor twist; lemon zest or freshly squeezed lemon juice for brightness (especially on seafood) like I do Lemon Garlic Butter Sauce, or a pinch of cayenne if you like a little heat.
- Stretch it further: Roast a few garlic bulbs at once and double the butter. It keeps well in the fridge and freezer. So, you’ll have ready-to-use flavor boosts all week.
- Keep it lighter: Skip the milk if you prefer a firmer compound butter that you can slice and place directly on hot steak or vegetables. My garlic herb butter for steaks walks you through the process to prepare for slicing it.
- Herb options: Swap the parsley for chives, thyme, rosemary, or a mix of fresh or dried herbs.
