Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 medium eggplants<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 large eggs<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bd cup all-purpose flour<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00be cup shredded mozzarella cheese<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bc cup grated Parmesan cheese<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 tsp paprika<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bd tsp garlic powder<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bd tsp Italian seasoning<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bd tsp salt<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bc tsp black pepper<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 tbsp olive oil<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Make It<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prepare the eggplant: Preheat your oven to 400\u00b0F (200\u00b0C). Slice the eggplants lengthwise into thick, even pieces, about \u00bd inch thick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prepare the coating: Spread the flour on a shallow plate. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs with paprika, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Stir in the mozzarella and Parmesan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spread flour over both sides of each eggplant slice. Make sure the covering adheres as you dip into the cheesy egg mixture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arrange: On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, arrange the coated slices in a single layer. Olive oil should be drizzled on top sparingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bake: Bake the eggplant for 25 to 30 minutes, or until it is soft and the cheesy topping is a lovely golden brown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Serve: Allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving it warm alongside a fresh green salad or the dipping sauce of your choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For additional browning, broil the steak for the final one to two minutes, keeping an eye on it to avoid burning.<\/p>\n\n\n
