Baked Eggplant

This recipe is originally from @nikifreeman but I have modified it slightly. I like my eggplant cut thicker and I used a 50:50 mixture of Italian breadcrumbs to parmesan cheese. I also melted provolone cheese over and garnished with basil leaves.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Trim ends off eggplant and cut into 1/2-1” thick slices. I like it on the thicker side for a stronger eggplant taste. Lightly salt and let sit for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 400°F.
- 2
In one bowl melt the butter. In a second bowl mix the breadcrumbs and grated cheese.
- 3
Line a baking pan with foil and spray with nonstick oil. Wipe eggplant with a paper towel to remove salt and moisture. Dip eggplant slices in the melted butter and then dredge through the breadcrumb mixture. Place on the baking pan.
- 4
Place pan in oven and cook for 15 minutes. Flip over eggplant and cook for 7 additional minutes. If desired you can place cheese over the eggplant after flipping.
- 5
Serve as a side or as eggplant parmesan.

Watched Julia Child make this in her video "How to Cook Vegetables" (which I highly recommend watching). I copied hers exactly. If you like eggplant this is delish. She steamed her eggplants whole. I did the same. She used lemon juice to finish hers; so did I. Next time I'm not going to use lemon because even though I love lemon, I like this dish better without it. The parsley I did like.
