- 1 large eggplant, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the eggplant slices on a baking sheet and sprinkle with salt. Let sit for 10 minutes to draw out moisture. Pat dry with a paper towel.
Brush both sides of the eggplant slices with olive oil. Arrange them in a single layer on the baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
In a small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper.
In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce. Place a layer of eggplant slices on top.
Sprinkle a portion of the breadcrumb mixture over the eggplant, followed by a layer of shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan.
Repeat the layering process until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cheese on top.
Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
