INGREDIENTS
1 medium Eggplant (~300g)
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce (~125g)
1/2 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese (~56g)
2 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese (~10g)
1 Egg White
2 tbsp Almond Flour (~14g)
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the eggplant into 1/4-inch thick rounds and lightly season with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg white. In another shallow dish, combine the almond flour with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Dip each eggplant slice into the egg white, then coat lightly with almond flour.
Arrange the coated eggplant slices on the baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway, until they are lightly golden and tender.
Take a baking dish and layer the baked eggplant slices. Spoon a thin layer of marinara sauce over the eggplant, sprinkle with part-skim mozzarella and a drizzle of grated Parmesan.
Repeat the layers if desired, finishing with a cheese layer on top.
Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the cheese has melted and is bubbly.
Serve hot and enjoy this healthier take on Eggplant Parmesan.
