Category: Appetizer, Main Dish, Side Dish
Ingredients
  • 4-6 green medium green tomatoes
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs*
  • ¼ cup milk*
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp ground black pepper
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp paprika
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment or foil and place a wire rack on the sheet. Spray the wire rack lightly with cooking spray and set aside (if you don't have a wire rack, bake on parchment or lightly sprayed foil, just turn halfway through)
  2. Slice tomatoes into ½ inch thick slices.
  3. Place the flour into a small bowl.
  4. Combine the eggs/milk* in another bowl.
  5. In another small bowl, mix the panko, cornmeal, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder and paprika.
  6. Coat each tomato slice in the flour, then soak completely in the egg/egg replacement mixture. Coat thoroughly with the panko mixture and place on the wire rack.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until lightly browned and the tomatoes are tender. Serve with dipping sauce - remoulade or ranch are great with this.
Notes
*To veganize – instead of the eggs, puree 6 oz silken tofu with 2 Tbsp non-dairy milk, OR for a more flavor-packed option, stir together 2 Tbsp dijon mustard, 2 Tbsp maple syrup, 1 Tbsp soy sauce and 1 Tbsp Vegenaise.
