Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium eggplant cut into fries (about 1/4 inch thick)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs preferably panko for extra crunch
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Cooking spray or oil for frying

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it with cooking spray or oil.
  2. In a shallow bowl, place the flour. In a second shallow bowl, whisk the eggs until well combined. In a third shallow bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Dredge each eggplant fry in flour, shaking off the excess. Dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  4. Arrange the coated eggplant fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Spray the tops lightly with cooking spray or drizzle with a little oil for extra crispiness.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
