After becoming gluten-free I could no longer order eggplant Parmesan from one of my favorite restaurants. This is the best GF replica I have made yet--absolutely delicious and everyone will enjoy.

  • Dip eggplant into eggs; coat with gluten-free bread crumbs. Place in a single layer on prepared baking sheet; lightly sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 6 minutes; remove from oven. Flip eggplant with a spatula; brush with olive oil. Bake until golden brown, about 6 minutes. Remove from oven; reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  • Spread enough spaghetti sauce into a 7x11-inch baking pan to cover the bottom; layer on some of the eggplant slices. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over eggplant; top with Parmesan cheese. Repeat layering sauce, eggplant, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese in this order; top with basil.

  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is bubbly and lightly golden, about 25 minutes.

Cook's Note:

You may substitute the Hodgson Mill(R) Seasoned Coating Mix with any brand of gluten-free bread crumbs. I enjoy this type because it contains a variety of herbs and spices.

I added my own seasoning to plain GF bread crumbs such as parsley, garlic salt, onion powder, sea salt and basil. I used a little less sauce as my family prefers less and a little extra cheese. It was delicious and I enjoyed it more the second day. Thank you so much for this recipe it was my first time eating eggplant too, now I’m hooked! Read More

Simple to prepare and absolutely delicious! I love that the eggplant slices are dipped only once in egg and once in breadcrumb parmesan mix and then baked. I used a Misto sprayer with extra virgin olive oil to lightly oil the slices before baking. I sprinkled Italian seasoning on top before baking and it added a subtle lovely flavor. I will definitely be making this recipe again! Read More

Since I am allergic to dairy as well as celiac I used the vegan cheeses for this dish. They worked very well. I also used panko gluten free Italian style breadcrumbs because that was all I had in the house. I would not use the Panko again because it made the dish too crunchy. Other than that it had wonderful flavors and I would definitely make it again with the above changes. Read More

I loved this and so did my husband. I used seasoned bread crumbs (Not gluten free but I loved the recipe) I also left the skin ON and sliced it as you would a cucumber. I used two jars of marinara sauce. I cooked it for about 40 minutes instead of 25. It is just delicious. Read More

Followed the directions closely just added more cheese and sauce. It was delicious! Even my 9 year old who doesnt like eggplant finished her plate! One tip to get even slices of eggplant - use a mandolin. Read More

I used a 13x9 pan and it was a bit on the dry side. I will add more sauce next time but the flavor was great! Will definitely make again. Read More
