- 3 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup Gluten-free Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice the aubergines into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
Arrange the aubergine slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. If necessary, use two sheets to avoid overlapping.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil and minced garlic.
Brush each side of the aubergine slices with the garlic-infused olive oil. Make sure to coat them well.
Season the aubergine slices with salt and black pepper.
Bake the aubergines in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the grated gluten-free Parmesan cheese over each slice.
Return the sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and begins to turn golden.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
