Instructions

Prep the Garlic: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut off the top 1/4 inch of the garlic bulb, exposing the cloves inside.
Oil and Season: Place the bulb on a large sheet of aluminum foil, then drizzle the exposed cloves with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and red pepper flakes if desired.
Roast: Wrap the garlic tightly in the foil, place it on a baking sheet, and roast for about 45 minutes, or until the cloves are very tender and fragrant.
Cool and Extract: Let the garlic cool for a few minutes, then gently squeeze the roasted cloves out of their skins into a small bowl.
Combine Ingredients: In a blender or food processor, add the boiled eggs, roasted garlic cloves, olive oil, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Blend Until Smooth: Process the mixture on medium speed for 1 to 2 minutes until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency, scraping down the sides as needed to ensure everything is fully incorporated.
Taste and Adjust: Taste the mayo and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to match your preference.
Store: Transfer the mayo to an airtight container or jar and refrigerate until ready to use, where it will keep for up to one week.
