Air Fryer Eggplant Parmesan

Bonjour, foodies! Join Sophie Dubois in her kitchen as she shares her recipe for mouthwatering Air Fryer Eggplant Parmesan. With just a few simple ingredients and a touch of European flair, you'll be enjoying restaurant-quality eggplant Parmesan in the comfort of your own home.

Ingredients

  • 2 medium eggplants, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
  2. Set up a breading station by placing the flour in one shallow dish, the beaten eggs in another shallow dish, and the breadcrumbs mixed with the Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a third shallow dish.
  3. Dip each eggplant slice in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then dip it in the eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, coat the eggplant slice in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to make sure it sticks.
  4. Place the breaded eggplant slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd the basket.
  5. Cook the eggplant slices for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
  6. Once the eggplant slices are cooked, remove them from the air fryer and place them on a baking sheet. Top each slice with a spoonful of marinara sauce and a sprinkle of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
  7. Place the baking sheet under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  8. Serve the eggplant Parmesan hot, garnished with fresh basil if desired. Enjoy!

That's it for Sophie Dubois' Air Fryer Eggplant Parmesan! Whether you serve it as a main dish or as a side, this cheesy, crispy delight is sure to become a family favorite. Bon appétit!
