Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash and dry the 2 eggplants. Trim the stems, then slice into 1-inch thick rounds.
Step 3
Arrange the eggplant slices in a single layer on the baking sheet. Brush both sides with the 3 tbsp olive oil.
Step 4
Sprinkle the 1 tsp salt and 0.5 tsp black pepper evenly over the slices.
Step 5
Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway, until the eggplant is golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork.
Step 6
Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature. Add a squeeze of lemon or fresh herbs if you like.
