Eggplant Fries

Eggplant fries are my newest addiction! They actually taste like fries rather than just slices of baked eggplant. They're crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside.

Ingredients:
1 medium/large eggplant
1-2 eggs
almond flour
coconut flour
garlic powder and/or other seasonings of choice
salt

*There are no measurements for the flour and seasonings because it's based on taste, and it depends on how big your eggplant is and how much you coat them. I had to guess, I'd say I used almost a cup of almond flour mixed with just a few tablespoons of coconut flour.

Directions: Peel the skin of the eggplant and cut into round slices about 1/2 inch thick, or into cubes. Set the slices on plates that are lined with paper towels and sprinkle salt all over the slices. Let them sit for about a half hour-- this helps get rid of the bitterness of the eggplant. Rinse off each slice and pat dry with a paper towel. Preheat the oven to 425 and line a baking sheet (I needed 2) with aluminum foil coated with non-stick spray. Cut the slices of eggplant length-wise to make them into strips. In a small bowl, beat the egg. In another bowl, mix the almond flour, coconut flour, and seasonings. Dip an eggplant strip into the eggs so it's completely coated, but shake off the excess. Then dip it into the flour mixture so it's completely coated, and place on the baking sheet. Repeat for all strips of eggplant. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
