Eggplant Parmesan Crumble Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 large eggplants, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
- 4 eggs, beaten
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Season the eggplant slices with salt and lay them out on paper towels for 30 minutes to remove excess moisture.
- In a shallow bowl, mix the flour, breadcrumbs, and Parmesan cheese.
- Dip each eggplant slice into the beaten eggs, then coat in the breadcrumb mixture.

- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish with chopped basil before serving.
