Ingredients

2 whole Aubergines (Eggplants)
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Salt
0.5 teaspoon Black Pepper
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
0.5 cup Heavy Cream
0.75 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
1 cup Cheddar Cheese, grated
1 cup Mozzarella Cheese, grated
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Slice the aubergines into 1/4 inch thick rounds and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 3

Brush both sides of the aubergine slices with olive oil and season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.

Step 4

Bake the aubergine slices in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are tender and slightly golden.

Step 5

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Stir continuously until the cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth, forming a cheese sauce.

Step 6

In a baking dish, arrange a layer of baked aubergine slices. Pour a bit of the cheese sauce over the layer, followed by a sprinkle of Cheddar and Mozzarella cheese.

Step 7

Repeat the layering process, ending with a generous layer of cheese on the top.

Step 8

Place the baking dish back in the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh basil.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your Keto Cheesy Baked Aubergine!
