5 ingredients

...
1 eggplant, unpeeled (approx 1-1/4 lb) Eggplant raw
...
1 tablespoon Olive or extra virgin olive oil
...
1/4 tsp Salt
...
1/4 tsp Pepper black
...
2 tsp Italian seasoning dried

5 steps

  • Preheat air fryer to 375F for 8 minutes.
  • Slice eggplant evenly into 1-inch (2.5 cm) rings.
  • Combine oil, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning in a small bowl and mix well.
  • Using a silicone brush, brush the eggplant slices on both sides with the oil mixture.
  • Place seasoned eggplant slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook for 5 minutes. Check on eggplant, turn down the temperature if browning too quickly. Cook until eggplant is soft and golden brown, about another 5-7 minutes.

Enjoy!

Tip:
For crispier eggplant, in Step 2, spread the eggplant slices on a clean kitchen towel. Lightly salt the eggplant slices and let them sit for 30 minutes to release their moisture. Pat dry slices with a paper towel or clean kitchen towel.
