This is a simple and delicious way to enjoy the pizza in a different way. We will use the eggplant sauce with pizza instead of the red sauce. This recipe is very similar to the other just we will make eggplant sauce by ourselves. Stay tuned!!!

Can you put eggplant on a pizza?

You bet! Eggplants are one of the few vegetables that can be used as a topping on a pizza or a sauce. They add flavor and texture to the crust. If you’re looking for a healthier alternative to traditional pizza toppings, try using eggplant instead.

How to bake eggplants as a topping?

To make an eggplant pizza, first, slice the eggplant into rounds. Then place them onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool before adding toppings.

How to bake eggplants for pizza sauce?

Eggplant sauce is too easy to make. Actually, there are many ways to do it but I will tell you my favorite one. First, grill some eggplant 2 or 3 until the skin is a little burned.

Second, in a bowl add the grilled eggplants and mash them with a fork well. Add minced garlic, olive oil, salt, black pepper, some lemon drops, cumin, and dry thyme. Mix all the ingredients well. If you want a purple sauce don’t peel the eggplants.

Do you peel eggplant?

In general, the answer is yes it’s better to peel it. The reason to do that is when you use big eggplants the skin of it is a lot bitter. However, if you can bear bitter things it is ok to cook all the eggplants.
