Ingrédients
  

  • 2 medium eggplants, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups marinara sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
  • 1/4 cup olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly oil it.
  • Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with a mixture of breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Dredge each eggplant slice in flour, dip into the beaten eggs, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture.
  • Place the breaded eggplant slices onto the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).
  • Spread 1/4 cup of marinara sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Layer with a few eggplant slices, marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, and fresh basil. Repeat the layers, finishing with mozzarella cheese on top.
  • Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
