Eggplant Parmesan Gluten Free Recipes

GLUTEN-FREE EGGPLANT PARMESAN

Steps:

• Special equipment: a broiler-safe 9-by-13-inch baking dish
• Position 2 oven racks in the center and upper third of the oven, and preheat to 425 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment.
• Cook the oil, tomato paste, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring, until the oil turns yellow, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes. Rinse the can with about 1 1/2 cups water, and add the tomato water and basil to the skillet. Bring to a simmer, and cook until the sauce thickens, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, put the almond flour in a medium bowl. Whisk the eggs and 3 tablespoons water in another medium bowl until frothy.
• Lay out the eggplant on a clean surface, and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Dip the eggplant in the egg, press into the almond flour to coat, then place on the prepared baking sheets. Bake until the eggplant is tender and the crust is golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes. Rotate the baking sheets if the top one is browning too quickly.
• Turn the oven to broil. Spread a little of the sauce on the bottom of a broiler-safe 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Arrange half the eggplant in the dish in as close to an even layer as you can without overlapping too much. Spread half the remaining sauce on top, then 1/4 cup of the mozzarella. Top with the remaining eggplant, sauce and mozzarella and the Parmesan. Broil until the cheese is melted and browned, about 1 minute. Sprinkle the parsley over the top, and serve immediately, while the cheese is still warm.

EGGPLANT PARMESAN RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease a baking sheet with the oil and set aside.
• Remove the stem end from the eggplant and slice the eggplant into 1/2-inch rounds. Salt them thoroughly and set on a clean kitchen towel. Leave for 15 to 20 minutes, to draw out the moisture.
• Meanwhile, whisk the eggs in a small bowl or pie dish and set aside.
• In another bowl or pie dish, whisk together the almonds, Parmesan cheese, basil, paprika, garlic, and oregano. Set aside.
• Brush the salt from the eggplant and press the slices with a towel to draw out any excess moisture.
• Dip the eggplant slices in the egg mixture, then in the almond mixture, and transfer to a baking sheet.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, then turn carefully, and continue to bake until golden brown and crispy
• Spoon the tomato sauce onto the baking sheet (around and on top of the eggplant) and top each round with the mozzarella cheese.
• Return to the oven and bake for 5 to 10 minutes, until the sauce is hot and the cheese has melted. Serve immediately.
