To keep things simple, I slice the eggplant thin and lightly spray it with olive oil before coating it in seasoned breadcrumbs.

The ultimate air fryer eggplant parmesan. It’s so good, my Italian grandmother would be proud. This lightened up, crispy air fryer eggplant parmesan recipe is truly amazing. It’s super easy to make. You don’t need any eggs or milk, and it delivers all that classic delicious flavor. Start by gathering the ingredients to make this recipe. We’re going to start by making the breadcrumb mixture. Add 3/4 cup of plain breadrumbs to a large bowl. From there, add 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of pepper, 1 tsp of garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of dried basil, and 1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano. After that, add 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese. Once you’ve added these ingredients to the bowl, thoroughly mix to combine the breadcrumb mixture. You’ll need one medium eggplant for this recipe, slice the eggplant into 1/4 in rounds. Lightly spray both sides of each eggplant round with olive oil spray. Press each slice firmly into the breadcrumb mixture, coating both sides well. Once you’ve evenly and thoroughly coated the eggplant round, add it to your air fryer basket. We like to add a parchment paper liner for easy cleanup. Repeat this process and place the coated eggplant in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Don’t overlap the slices. You may need to cook it in batches depending on the size of your air fryer. Air fry the eggplant at 375° F for 17 to 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy. Then add a spoonful of marinara and a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese to each slice. For this entire recipe, you’ll need 1 cup of marinara sauce and 1 cup of light shredded mozzarella cheese. Once you add the sauce and cheese, air fry for another 1 to two minutes until the cheese melts. Then, garnish with fresh basil and enjoy.
