Preheat the oven to 90°C / 195°F.
Peel the garlic cloves and slice off the bottoms where the root was attached.
Add all cloves into the pan you're using to cook this in. I used a tiny frying pan with a 5-inch (~12cm) diameter. If you have a shallow pan like I did, make sure they're in a single layer so all the cloves will be covered by the oil. If you're using a ramekin this won't be a concern.
Pour over enough EVOO to completely cover the garlic.
Place a few sprigs of thyme on the top, then place in the oven to cook for 2 hours.
To serve, drop a big clove into a nourishing bowl, make salad dressings with it, or simply spread it on some toast.
