5. Place the coated eggplant slices onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each slice.
6. Bake the eggplant bites in a preheated oven at 180 C/350 F for about 20-25 minutes until they turn golden brown and crispy.
Topping instructions:
1. Spoon a dollop of tomato sauce onto each eggplant slice, spreading it evenly.
2. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the tomato sauce.
3. Add a pinch of oregano and basil to enhance the flavors.
4. Place the baking sheet back into the oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
5. Once done, remove the eggplant slices from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
6. Serve your delicious Keto Gluten-Free Eggplant Parm Bites as a delightful snack, appetizer, side dish, or main course with a salad bowl.
