Main Ingredients

  • 2 large eggplants
  • 2 cups gluten-free breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 3 cups marinara sauce
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 1 cup gluten-free flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Slice the eggplants into ¼ inch thick rounds. Sprinkle with salt and let sit for 10 minutes to draw out moisture. Pat dry.
  3. Set up a breading station with gluten-free flour, beaten eggs, and gluten-free breadcrumbs mixed with grated Parmesan cheese.
  4. Dredge each eggplant slice in flour, dip in eggs, then coat with breadcrumb mixture.
  5. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry eggplant slices until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.
  6. In a baking dish, spread a layer of marinara sauce. Layer fried eggplant slices, more marinara sauce, and shredded mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers, finishing with mozzarella on top.
  7. Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until cheese is bubbly and golden.
  8. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.
