Stages of cooking
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease baking sheets with cooking spray.
-
Whisk together eggs and water in a shallow bowl. Place bread crumbs in a second bowl.
-
Dip eggplant slices in egg mixture, then press in bread crumbs to coat. Arrange eggplant in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until eggplant is golden, about 25 minutes.
-
Evenly spread 1 cup sauce in a 13x9-inch baking dish. Layer ½ of the baked eggplant slices evenly over sauce, then top with 1 cup sauce and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese; repeat layers once more. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
-
Bake for 45 minutes. Remove the aluminum foil and sprinkle top with mozzarella cheese. Continue baking, uncovered, until cheese is melted, about 10 minutes.
