Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• ½ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp ground black pepper
• ½ tsp dried oregano
• 1 small eggplant, sliced into ½ inch rounds
• ¼ cup vegetable oil
• 1 (14 ounce) bottled pizza sauce
• 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Beat the eggs in a bowl. Mix the flour, salt, pepper, and oregano in a 1 gallon resealable plastic bag. Dip each eggplant slice in the egg, then drop the eggplant in the flour mixture one at a time, shaking the bag to coat the eggplant.
3. Heat the vegetable oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Place the eggplant slices in the skillet to cook, turning occasionally, until evenly browned. Drain the eggplant slices on a paper towel-lined plate. Arrange the eggplant in one layer on a baking sheet.
4. Spoon enough pizza sauce to cover each eggplant slice. Top each eggplant with mozzarella cheese.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until the mozzarella cheese is melted, 5 to 10 minutes.
6. Toppings are personal preference and are not included in nutritional facts. Shown above with pepperonis, not vegetarian.
