WHAT YOU WILL NEED

First, preheat the oven to 425 °F (220 °C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Then, slice the eggplant horizontally into ½-inch (1 cm) thick round slices.

STEP 1

Brush each slice with a bit of olive oil on both sides and then transfer them to the baking sheet.

STEP 2

Sprinkle the eggplant with salt, pepper, and half of the dried oregano and bake for 15 minutes.

STEP 3

Meanwhile, combine the remaining oregano with the tomato sauce, minced garlic, and salt and pepper.

STEP 4

After the 15 minutes, spread each eggplant slice with the tomato sauce and top it off with the cheese and toppings of your choice. I used homemade mozzarella with cherry tomatoes and olives.

STEP 5

Bake the eggplant pizza bites for a further 10-12 minutes, then remove them from the oven, garnish with fresh basil, and enjoy!
