Instructions

  1. 1

    Lay the eggplant rounds on a wire rack, sprinkle both sides lightly with salt, and let them sit for 15 minutes to draw out bitterness, then pat dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Preheat the oven to 400°F and set up a breading station with flour in one dish, plant milk in a second, and breadcrumbs in a third.

  3. 3

    Dredge each eggplant round in flour, dip in plant milk, then press into breadcrumbs, and arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet; bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp.

  4. 4

    Spread 1 cup marinara in the bottom of a baking dish, then layer in the baked eggplant, more sauce, and vegan mozzarella, repeating until all ingredients are used and finishing with cheese on top.

  5. 5

    Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the sauce bubbles at the edges and the cheese is melted, then let it rest for 5 minutes before serving with fresh basil.
