Ingredients

1 lb eggplant, cut into 1-inch cubes

2 tb avocado oil

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp dried thyme

1/2 tsp lemon pepper

1/4 tsp salt, or to taste

Directions

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Line the air fry basket with a disposable paper liner or give it a quick spritz of cooking oil.

In a large bowl, combine eggplant cubes with avocado oil. Season with garlic powder, thyme, lemon pepper, and salt. Mix well to ensure even coating.

Arrange the eggplant pieces in a single layer within the air fryer basket. Mist the top with cooking spray. Fry until the exterior is browned, and the interior tender, approximately 15 to 17 minutes. Shake the basket halfway through for even cooking.

Serve immediately for optimal taste.
