03 Method

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2

Prepare your dipping stations by mixing together almond milk and cornstarch in one bowl; gluten-free flour, cornstarch, and sea salt in another bowl; and gluten-free panko bread crumbs, cornmeal, vegan parmesan cheese, oregano, and sea salt in another bowl.
Step 3

If serving with pasta and sauces, prepare at this time (optional). Once pasta is done the cooking, drain and cover with a towel to keep warm. Set aside.
Step 4

Dip eggplant slices in flour mixture, then almond milk mixture, and then breadcrumb mixture and arrange dipped rounds on a clean plate.
Step 5

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add 2 Tbsp oil (30 ml // as the recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size). Let the oil heat for 1 minute.
Step 6

Add 4-5 eggplant rounds at a time and brown for 2-3 minutes on each side or until light golden brown. Then add to the prepared baking sheet, and add a baking sheet to the oven so the eggplant can start baking.
Step 7

Continue browning eggplant in batches until all rounds are browned and in the oven, adding more oil to the cooking pan as needed and turn down the heat if eggplant rounds are browning too quickly.
Step 8

Bake eggplant for 10-15 minutes or until crispy and golden brown, flipping once around the halfway mark to ensure even baking. Then serve as is or with desired sides and sauces.
