Oven air frying is one of my favorite methods of preparing food. Enjoy a healthy spin on the traditional eggplant parmesan recipe I share in today’s post.
Eggplant Parmesan Recipe
The biggest problem I have with owning an oven air fryer is I want to prepare more recipes. The oven air fryer cooks the food as if it were in the deep fryer only with no added fat/calories. If you don’t have a Electric Oven Air fryer you really should consider getting one! You can also do this same method in your oven but don’t expect it to be crunchy like in the Air fryer appliance bakes it up. Below is my recipe for this delicious summer treat using eggplant you can grow.
Inspired by my garden to create this recipe!
Eggplant and Herbs In the Garden
I highly recommend patio/ container eggplant varieties for this recipe.
The great thing about using a patio or container garden eggplant variety is you will not have to soak the slices in salt water to get them to tenderize. The new varieties are perfect as is! A few patio eggplant varieties I recommend are Fairytale, Rosa Bianca, and Shooting Start. You can find these by searching your favorite seed companies or ask me.
Below are a few of my favorite ingredients from the garden to use in this recipe. In today’s feature, I have new basil I am trailing in my garden this summer by Proven Winner. It is a super fragrant grower and is performing very nice in my super dry summer garden. This variety grew lovely in my raised bed but would do great in an edible landscape. The basil was used in the pasta sauce along with garnish.
About The Basil
the first Italian sweet basil that is resistant to downy mildew, a disease that often plagues basil. And since it’s sterile, this large, vigorous plant produces a higher yield of usable, deliciously aromatic leaves. – Proven Winners

Parmesan Zucchini Crisps and Dip Recipe
I’m looking forward to the new year and all the fresh veggies growing in the dome and my garden. Zucchini is one of my favorite veggies to grow each year mostly because they are tasty and super easy to grow. In today’s post, I share a zesty appetizer that you could put together most any time of the year as long as you have fresh zucchini. The dip is super easy to put together as well. Check out this parmesan zucchini crisps recipe! Parmesan Zucchini Crisps and Dip Recipe This is a very simple recipe using fresh ingredients. It is best to use a right off the vine zucchini but if you don’t have one just head to the market and get the freshest you can find. The chives and lemons I grow year-round in the dome ( and you can too). Hot sauce is optional but if you had just a dash of Franks hot sauce it will add just a little zip and not too hot to taste. Be sure to have these items in your pantry. The detailed recipe in printable form is on this post. For this recipe you will need the following: sour cream buttermilk chives hot sauce salt garlic powder lemon extract Zucchini and Coating flour zucchini 2 large lemons parmesan cheese panko bread crumbs nutmeg vanilla extract garlic powder ground white pepper eggs grapeseed oil salt Zucchini Crisp and Dip Printable Recipe A few years ago I had to hide my deep fryer because my teenagers kept experimenting with anything they could get their hands on… deep-fried pickles, onions, meats, cheeses, and even strawberries. This is a recipe that you and the kids will love because it is baked and you can’t beat the main ingredient (zucchini). You can even use your Oven Air Fryer to create this parmesan zucchini crisps recipe that will leave them guessing if it was deep-fried. I’ve included both the oven and Oven Air Fryer directions on this post. Let me know if you have any questions.

5 Comments on “Air Fryer Eggplant Parmesan Recipe”
I am unable to download your recipes. In particular I am interested in your gingerbread mustard cake but your air fryer eggplant looks good too.
Actually all your stuff looks good.
Sorry for confusion – the mozzarella cheese is used as topping before serving if desired. I don’t show that in this post so it is optional.
Do both the parm and mozz go in the breadcrumbs?
The cheese goes in the bread crumbs or you can sprinkle on top of the dish when it is complete!
