NOT Fried Eggplant

Submitted by: VANILLAKISS555

Introduction

The problem you always run into with eggplant is blandness and it's hard for me to enjoy it without frying it up! (not so healthy) until now ;) The problem you always run into with eggplant is blandness and it's hard for me to enjoy it without frying it up! (not so healthy) until now ;)
Number of Servings: 3

Ingredients

    Bread crumbs, dry, grated, seasoned, 1/3 cup
    Eggplant, fresh, (1 eggplant peeled)
    Egg white, 1/4 cup
    Olive Oil, 1 tbsp

Directions

-peel and slice eggplant (I cut into 18 pieces just to give you a ballpark)
-dip in eggwhites so breadcrumbs will stick then coat both sides
-make sure there's enough oil oil on your baking sheet so they won't stick and bake at 425 turning once (I like mine crispy so I left them in for 30 minutes, but when you see that golden brown color they're good to go)

I love dipping these in marinara sauce!

    If you grind up 1/2 cup of Fiber one and use that it will be less calories and sooo much more fiber! If you're on WW it won't add any additional points either. Use Olive Oil Spray and you'll knock off even more calories. I love eggplant just baked up like that. (even without any coating!) - 2/21/09

    Yes, I have been doing this one for 20 years. You can also take the baked eggplant cutlets and then layer them in a baking dish, with parm or romano cheese, and lowfat Mozzerella, and your favorite marina sauce until you have two or three layers of combined ingredients, and rebake for Eggplant Parm! - 1/4/11

    To skip on any refined/white flour, I'm using 100% whole wheat toast ran through the food processor to make a healthier batch of crumbs. - 7/3/10

    This was good for a healthier version of the fried eggplant. I'll add a bit more spices next time, but will definitely make it again. - 10/22/08

    Excellent! Husband LOVES it, as do I! Used 1/4" eggplant slices, italian breadcrumbs and fresh ground (Mrs. Dash?) Italian blend seasoning. Baked at least 30 minutes until very crispy. Absolutely fantastic. - 1/17/12

    1/3 c breadcrumbs was not enough to coat 15 (much less 18) slices of eggplant. I had to double the breadcrumbs. Otherwise great recipe. - 4/8/13

    This was great! I know nothing about cooking, let alone eggplant, so I experimented a bit. I tried it as the recipe calls for (turned out crispy & yummy) and also w/ no egg and keeping the skin on (soggy). I had no true marinara on hand, but Ragu Chunky Garden made it taste like tiny veg pizzas! - 1/18/10

    It was delicious. Next time I will try the crushed fiber one or even bran flakes to add a bit more flavor. I dipped in plum sauce. - 3/25/09

    Very good & easy way to fix eggplant. I used Pam olive oil spray, instead of the olive oil, which saves calories. May try it next time with Panko breadcrumbs & other seasoning. Will make again. - 8/29/12

    Crispy and delicious! Next time I will definitely try the bran flakes instead of the bread crumbs because they were extremely salty. - 7/25/12

    To make it even healthier and bring out the flavor more, use rice bran oil instead of olive oil, and a little sea salt, YUM YUM for the Tum Tum!!!! - 5/10/12

    I don't like eggplant but my husband does. I added garlic powder, italian seasoning and a little parmesan cheese to the breadcrumbs. Amazing! Even my picky 5 year old daughter who wouldn't try this ate 3 pieces after the whole family raved about it.Definitely will be making again! - 1/8/12

    This was very good, I used Pam Olive oil spray to knock off some of the calories but I may have a used a little more bread crumbs. Even my two year old ate a little of this, he probably thought it was like a potato chip - 6/26/11
