Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Set up a breading station with three bowls: one for flour, one for beaten eggs, and one for a mixture of breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Dredge each eggplant slice in flour, shaking off the excess.
  4. Dip the floured eggplant slice into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.
  5. Coat the eggplant slice in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  6. Place the coated eggplant slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Lightly spray them with olive oil.
  7. Air fry for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  8. Remove from the air fryer and let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • For added flavor, you can mix herbs like oregano or basil into the breadcrumb mixture.
  • Serve with marinara sauce or a yogurt dip for a delicious snack or appetizer.
