No-Fry Sheet-Pan Eggplant Parmesan

Share

I made this No-Fry Sheet-Pan Eggplant Parmesan recently and let me tell you – it is a revelation! I never realised that you could get perfectly crisp and golden eggplant without frying. I am here today to share this amazing recipe with you!

Start by preparing a tomato sauce for the dish. Coat the eggplant with breadcrumbs and place them on the baking sheet in a single layer. Bake until crisp and browned and top with tomato sauce, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Bake in the oven and rotate halfway through. When the cheese has melted and the sauce is bubbly, remove from the oven. Sprinkle with torn basil and serve.
