Italian Breaded Baked Eggplant Recipe

- This Italian Breaded Baked Eggplant Recipe is fast, easy and delicious, but what I appreciate most is how many ways I can use these baked eggplant slices. Of course the best way is to make eggplant parmesan, however, there is also the eggplant roasted pepper hero and just a simple spaghetti topped with the Italian Breaded Baked Eggplant and some tomato sauce. How about as a pizza toping or some sauteed spinach sandwiched between 2 slices of eggplant. The possibilities are endless!

Hi. Sure that I will try your recipe. Thank you for explain clearly and for your enthusiasm while cooking, your are great
Thank you.!
I'm so glad I found this! I have fresh eggplant from the garden (my first garden ever at 56) and I don't want it to go to waste. I'm making this tonight and I'll have leftovers for lunch and snacks!! Thank you for the great instruction on baking eggplant!
Love love love this. Cut out fried foods this was delicious!!! Still crunchy I feel like it was even better without all that excess oil ! This will definitely be a staple in my kitchen from now on !
I’ve watched several breaded eggplant videos before this one, trying to find one I liked. Well I finally found it here, thanks 👍
👍 You are so welcome! As a Chef I try to make every ingredient count and have every cooking technique have purpose. I am glad you enjoyed this video recipe and thanks for the kind words. Let me know if there are any other recipes I can tackle for you. (●'◡'●)
@@chefdanalmostvegan Made them last night, they were great. Couldn’t even tell they weren’t fried! This will be my go to from now on.
Brava!
Thank you, I am glad you enjoyed the recipe. Keep watching .
@@chefdanalmostveganhow do you reheat these? They tend to get spoungie if I reheat in microwave. Do you bake them again or fry lightly oil in skillet to reheat? Thx
Years ago I had Sophia Loren's recipe for frying eggplant, it was published in a magazine. Chef Dan, your recipe is very similar to hers, She peeled the eggplant, cut it thicker, used seasoned breadcrumbs, etc. the only real difference (that I remember) is you baked this instead of frying. I'm making this your way today. Baking is healthier. than frying...and easier.
It’s not always healthier, some of us need fat in our diet to be healthy but I did this recipe in my air-fryer without knowing it was a recipe, I just tried it and it’s bloody delicious 😍
Thanks chef Dan! I’m making eggplant parm for Christmas Eve and was worried about frying it! Awesome alternative!
Chef Dan, it's Bernie from the Cruise Dinner! It was great meeting you and your wife!
👍👍Thanks for checking out my Channel, and YES! it was a great cruise, and a pleasure meeting you as well.😁😁
Great channel Dan! We love to cook so I'm learning new recipes from you! 😊
👍👍Excellent, Enjoy the recipes, and let me know how they come out😉😉
No way I’m not trying this! They look amazing and I already love eggplant.
YES! I also love eggplant!
Grazie, Chef Dan! I had a blast watching your video and cooking with your recipe! 🙂
OMG.. This is almost a taste bomb.. Specially garlic & thyme.. They absolutely fit with eggplant.. Thanks a lot Chef Dan.
👍That's what it's all about. Those layers of flavor. Thanks for the nice comment, and enjoy all the videos😁.
You are very welcome. I am so glad you enjoyed this recipe. Keep watching, and I will keep making videos.
Love this recipe, thanks chef Dan!
You have beautiful energy! Very uplifting and motivating! Thank you and I'm making this tonight! I like this recipe but I joined mostly because of your energy while cooking it makes me want to learn something new 😊. And! You use Corning Ware with the blue cornflower pattern, I am a huge collector of Corning Ware cookware in this pattern.
😁😁Thank you for that awesome comment! Food is just very exciting to me. It's almost therapeutic!
The is a revolutionary invention, Chef Dan. I’m so glad. I remember time of the ancient hard work frying on top of the stove. Thanks a million.
👍Right on! It's all about getting in and out of the kitchen quickly, without losing any of the great flavors and textures of the food.😁
Dan - I just came upon your video and had two eggplants I didn’t want to go to waste. Tried out your method and it worked PERFECT. The only thing I did different was cooking them on parchment. This is a real keeper, thank you!
👍Glad it helped, I am always buying eggplants on sale, and so I usually have a couple in the back of my fridge. I use this recipe and cook them up, then they are so versatile. Sometimes i will just use them in a sandwich with some roasted peppers and hummus, awesome. Sometimes a quick, easy eggplant parm. As a snack, I roll then up and make a tomato sauce dip. Oh Yeah . . . so versatile. Thanks for the wonderful comment. 😁
Thank you for your detailed reply Dan. All info gratefully received! Always looking for ideas re eggplants - that is to say “aubergines” here in the U.K. 🇺🇸🇬🇧
Beautiful recipe ! Respect to chef Dan ! Thank you
😁Thank you too! and thanks for watching.👍
Absolutely love the video love your accent and attitude. Im a new subbie for sure ❤
Thank you, Chef Dan for sharing this delicious recipe. I made it using ground flax seeds with water to make and egg consistency and included all the other ingredients in the batter and it worked just fine. I have also used the same batter recipe for peeled pumpkin and it was delicious as well. I agree with the previous comment...it IS a "taste bomb,"
👍Thanks for the comment. Most of my videos are either vegan or can be made vegan very easily. I love the use of flax seed eggs as a substitute for eggs in this recipe. I also use the eggplant as a substitute for luncheon meat like turkey or roast beef in sandwich.😁
Thank you Chef Dan for this delicious recipe!
You are very welcome, and keep watching.😁😁
I made some breaded eggplant today, I grew up with it and we're Guatemala 🇬🇹, for some reason we make this way too. I used the crumbs mixed with chilly powder and parm. Came out really good.
OOOh! I like the chili powder. I think I will do some experimenting with adding some different flavors to my eggplant. Maybe Chinese 5-spice would be nice. Thanks for the comment.👍👍

Fried baked eggplant oh so good. Chef Dan, my mouth is watering. That garlic is key to baked eggplant. Take a nice crusty piece of bread with your baked eggplant with some pesto and wow!! Makes a tremendous sandwich. Add a slice of prosciutto di parma if you wish and enjoy! Make sure the bread is semolina bread!
👍 Sounds great! I love recipes like this eggplant when you can use this recipe as an ingredient to make another recipe, like your amazing sandwich idea. You had mw at "Semolina Bread". Nice! (●'◡'●)
Very nice 👌 i like the Eggplant peeled also. Your a great cook
👍Thank you so much, I love to cook, and it shows . . . I think that if I put my passion in my foood, the food tastes better.
Thanks again for the nice comment.😁
Simple easy directions I love your Italian accent and I’m doing this recipe tonight ❤❤❤❤
Thank you 😊✔️
👍👍You are very welcome and i am glad you are enjoying the videos😁😁.
I always use 4C breadcrumbs for my eggplant.
Can't wait to try this recipe. The only thing I would do differently is use the parmesan cheese and peel the eggplant with stripes to keep some of the color.
😁Sounds great! That's why I love being "Almost Vegan" Parmesan cheese is soooo yummy. Peeling the eggplant into stripes is a good idea. I will try it. Thank you for the comment.✔
Thanks muchly Chef Dan!! Using right and left hands for coating the eggplant is genius! My hands got so gummy doing it with both hands. Gonna make soon!!
😁 Thanks for the comment. I learned that trick many years ago while working at the original NY Marriott (The Essex House). Great memories. 👍
I will try this,thanks
😁Your Welcome, and don't hesitate to try some of my other recipes.👍
Can I vacuum seal and freeze them?
Great
Thank you Dan 🤞🏾
😁You are very welcome. My pleasure. I hope you enjoy all the videos. Let me know if there is a special recipe I can make for you.👍
I discovered you a couple weeks ago. Thank you for the great recipes. My daughter has celiac disease and many food allergies including eggs. So, we are gluten-free vegans.😅 You have a lot of great recipes.
👍Awesome! Let me know if there is any recipe in particular you would like to see. And thank you for subscribing.😁
Omgosh this was sooo good! I used gluten free 4c bread crumbs. I peeled the skin versus last time trying this recipe. Using almond flour, Wow wow wee wow! It tasted close to breaded chicken! 30min each side on 400F in the oven. You are damn right, sir!
😁The best part is that it is sooo versatile. My favorite is making a hero with the eggplant, roasted peppers and fresh basil. Yum!👍
Thank you chef Dan! I'm making these tonight!
😁Hope you enjoy
Yep!! Tried a different eggplant recipe last week….didn’t like it.
Tonight I made this recipe with a side of garlic potatoes/carrots and garlic bread…..family thought they were eating at a 5 star restaurant.
Awesome video! Thank you!
awesome !!!!
New sub! Trying this tonight. Looks great.
😁Excellent! and don't forget to try some of my other recipes. 👌
Dan: I just found your channel, I will try the way you cooked and add choped parsley in the egg, maybe gonna be good too.thanks.
👍👍Nice! The chopped parsley adds a little freshness to the eggplant. Let me know how it comes out.
Thanks.love love love
😁Right back at Ya! I hope you enjoy all my videos.👍
GREAT!
👍👍I love that, One work says it all. Thanks for the comment.😊😊
You can sub the eggs with about a cup of chickpea flour to 1/4 cup of nutritional with salt and a squirt of mustard. Add water and stir to make a batter like consistency, it’s really good instead of the egg,
😁Thank You, I'm going to try that. Sounds good.✔
I found another almost vegan like me. Love the video! New sub here ❤️
Looks good
😁 Thank You, It tastes good too.👍
Great teacher, A+ Eggplant
Glad you think so!😁
I love his speaking style
Thank You for your nice comment.
Hi Chef Dan love this!! I'm wondering if it's ok to use parchment paper so you dont have the extra pan to clean? Thank you 💙
👍👍Thanks for the comment. You will sacrifice some browning by using parchment paper, which will slightly affect the flavor. You can try it and decide if the easier cleanup is worth it. Sometimes an easy cleanup makes all the difference.😉😉
UPDATE. . . . my wife just picked up some vegan alfredo sauce, so I popped some eggplant in the oven, and I am going to make eggplant parmesan, only using that vegan alfredo sauce.
I look forward to making this dish this week. Can I use Parmesan instead of nutritional yeast?
Yes, absolutely. Nutritional yeast is the vegan version of parmesan cheese.
Very nice 👍
Thank you 👍
The first thing that came to mind was eggplant lasagna . It is amazing how many videos show you how to throwit together without preparing the main ingredient . .
👌True . . . OOOH !!! Eggplant lasagna, Love it.😁
Ty ❣️ just made these great video just sub
Mmmm
👍Yeah, I think it's pretty good too, and very versatile.😊
Thats how I make my eggplant mmmmmm
😁 Thanks for the comment. I think more people are starting to bake their eggplant rather than fry it. It's healthier, but I believe it also tastes better. (●'◡'●)
Hey chef Dan, do you have to salt the eggplant first to extract the water?
😁That's really a personal preference. I don't salt the eggplant. And, I don't see a huge difference. I love eggplant, so I really don't want to mess around with it's character. Try both ways and decide for yourself. Thanks for the comment. 👍
what could you use instead of egg? (vegan)
😃 First, Thanks for the comment. Sometimes I will use water. This makes the bred coating a lot thinner, which makes the eggplant less carbs and less fat, and vegan. The trade-off is the eggplant won't have that crunch from the breadcrumbs, or as much of that toasted breadcrumb flavor. Depends on how I intend to use the eggplant. If I am putting the eggplant on a sandwich, then I will use water because I will get the "Breadcrumb" character in the bread of the sandwich. 😁
use flour and water mix, works like an egg
I made this again and I love it but mine just don't brown, even at this temperature, so I took it out and fried them in a pan. Why are mine just not turning brown in the oven? What am I doing wrong?
Salt the sliced pieces both sides it, let it set about 15 minutes. Rinse them and dry them off with a paper towel. Eggplants have a lot of water, the salt draws out the water.
Thank you chefff😘and Please Write it down all ingredients and how many spoon salt ,etc, because we want Simple and not to to Salt or to sweet
Ok next time, Promise!
I agree, all videos should have the written recipe also. For the hearing impaired, it's difficult to understand what is being said. Thank you!
Where will I see the recipe
😁Most of my videos come with an ingredient list below the video. Some videos, like the breaded eggplant one is all about technique, so there is no written recipe. The idea is to use the eggplant in your own recipe. There is a recipe coming out in September, Eggplant cannelloni, which used the baked eggplant in an interesting way. Otherwise, use this eggplant in any way you would use a cooked eggplant.
Thank you for your question. Let me know if I can be of any more help.👍
Мне сильно нравится Италия еекулинарние способности!!!
Thank you, I also love Italian Food. Simple, Easy, Delicious.
@@chefdanalmostvegan Очень сильно нравится Кулинария моя стихия!!! Благодарю за понимание подержку!!! Дай Бог побивать би в Италии. Попробивать Ваги кулинарние способности. Свои тоже представлю!!!
Даст Бог встретится в етой прекрасною стране!!!
Баклажани моя стихия. Их так можно приготовить что пальчики оближишь!!!
Yes! Eggplant seems to absorb great flavors and so it makes great dishes, definitely worth licking off your fingers😁
Perfect recipe except one thing....To get the best flavor, salt the eggplant slices first and squeeze the bitter juice after 30 minutes...And then dry grill both sides of each slice with no oil or anything before crumbing. The eggplant is then fully cooked before crumbing. Try this and you will always do it this way.
😁😁I like the idea of salting and grilling the eggplant. That would bring more flavor to the dish. It's a lot more work, and I don't know if it's worth it. Also by cooking the eggplant twice, it may dry out a bit. Maybe salting and grilling the eggplant should replace the breading and baking altogether . That would lower the carbs also. Thank you for the comment, and for the cooking tip.👍👍
@@chefdanalmostvegan Thank you. If you dry grill the eggplant it will be 1000% better. Trust me. Keep the breading method but not with the raw eggplant. Just try it. Grill it with no oil or any other ingredients after you have salted it and the bitter juice is expelled. Just try it once. It is like eating crumbed veal.
Just tried grilling before breading. It does adds another layer of flavor. I love that charred flavor from the grill. It required more work on my part. A lot of extra steps. I believe, for a special occasion . . . . . Yes! this eggplant was delicious.
Thank You for the Hack. Wonderful!👍
@@chefdanalmostvegan thank you so much. Enjoy 🙏🙏👍🏼
Making tonight, I always take the skin off & salt first & let it sit on paper towels. Why add water to eggs?
The protein in the eggs are water soluble, so the eggs, with the added water will thin out, holding less breadcrumbs, resulting in more eggplant flavor and less bready texture.
@@chefdanalmostvegan thanks! I made 2 eggplants yesterday, 1 batch fried, 1 batch baked
put those on pizza
Close that oven door, Dan, when you take something out. Heat rises and you lose a lot when the oven door is open.
You are 100% correct! Sometimes in filming a video, things like that happen. I try to be mindful about stuff like that, but occasional something will slip through. Sorry about that and thanks for the comment.
I love this method, just never get why people peel towards them??? I peel away into trash can ????
👍Thanks for the comment. I need to cut some of the fat from my diet (High blood pressure), so this method works for me. As far as the peeling . . . I guess it's a comfort thing. Thanks again for the nice comment.😁
Alright Joe Pesci!
Love Joe Pesci, Great Actor!
I swear sometimes I was watching Peter Griffin cooking
😁😁Peter is alright! And thanks for the comment.
Misleading "almost vegan", what does that mean: Vegan is binary it is vegan or not, there is nothing called "almost vegan". The moment egg is added, it is NOT vegan, as simple as that,
100% true. These recipes are NOT vegan. The introduction of small amounts of dairy and even meat make this diet Not Vegan, and very sustainable, and even healthy.
Italians fry breaded eggplant not bake it

Let me know what you think. I enjoy eggplant fried, but I appreciate the healthier version baked as well.
