BBQ Eggplant Burgers
Ingredients
1 eggplant, keeping in mind the width needs to fit a hamburger bun
1/2 cup or so bbq sauce, l use Bone Suckin’ Sauce-look for a sauce that does not contain high fructose syrup
Whole wheat hamburger buns
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees fahrenheit and prepare a large baking sheet with either parchment paper or a silicone mat.
Slice the eggplant into about 1/4” thick slices, leaving the peel on. This is what will hold the slices into shape.
Spread a thin layer of bbq sauce on each side of the slices and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet.
Place in the oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until they are browned. Remove with a spatula and layer 3 or 4 slices onto a hamburger bun and load up with your favorite toppings such as leafy greens, sliced onion, tomato, and pickles.
Serves 2-4 depending on the size of your eggplant.
