Ingredients
  

1 head of garlic

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

2 large eggs

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Optional: red pepper flakes, for a spicy kick

Instructions
 

Roast the Garlic:

    - Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

      - Slice the top off the head of garlic to expose the cloves. Drizzle with olive oil and wrap in aluminum foil.

        - Roast in the oven for 30-35 minutes until the cloves are soft and caramelized. Allow to cool, then squeeze out the roasted garlic from the skins and set aside.

          Prepare the Dough:

            - In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, oregano, and black pepper.

              - In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, and the roasted garlic until smooth.

                Combine Ingredients:

                  - Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until well combined.

                    - Gently fold in the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.

                      Shape the Snacks:

                        - Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

                          - Using your hands or a cookie scoop, form small balls (about the size of a golf ball) and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart.

                            Bake:

                              - Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and cheesy bubbles appear on the surface.

                                Serve:

                                  - Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and, if desired, sprinkle with red pepper flakes for an extra kick.

                                    - Serve warm and enjoy your Cozy Cheesy Roasted Garlic Savory Snacks with a side of marinara sauce or yogurt dip!
