Ingredients

  • 1 large eggplant
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Your favorite pizza toppings (e.g., pepperoni, olives, basil)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Slice the eggplant into 1/2-inch thick rounds and season with salt. Let sit for 10-15 minutes to release excess moisture.

  4. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and fry eggplant slices until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel.
  5. Place fried eggplant slices on the prepared baking sheet. Top each slice with tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, and your favorite toppings.
  6. Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
