Vegan Smashed Eggplant Toast

Have you tried Baba Ganoush? It’s a magical dip made with super soft, roasted eggplant (aubergine), tahini with nuts, garlic (I prefer roasts too raw), aromatic parsley, lemon juice, smoked peppers and good olive oil (you can avoid this when prefers to keep it oil-free).

Vegan Smashed Eggplant Toast is a great way to improve it if you’re bored with avocado toasts! This is not just for breakfast, but for brunch, lunch or a snack.

Ingredients

  • For the Baba Ganoush:

    • 1 eggplant (aubergine), halved
    • 2 garlic cloves
    • 1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
    • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
    • 1 tablespoon tahini
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil*
    • 3 tablespoons flat leaf parsley, roughly chopped
    • Salt + pepper, to taste
  • To Serve:

    • Toasted bread (gluten-free if necessary)
    • Toppings of choice listed in notes**
  • Instructions

    For The Baba Ganoush:

    • Lay out the eggplant (aubergine) skin-side up on a baking tray (lined with baking paper) and roast in oven for around 45 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit), until soft enough to easily pierce with a fork
    • Around 20 minutes before removing eggplant from the oven, place the whole garlic cloves in the same baking tray
    • Meanwhile, mix together the paprika, lemon juice, tahini, olive oil, parsley and salt + pepper in a bowl
    • Push the garlic cloves out of their skins (should fall out easily) and place in the bowl, using a spoon to gently crush them and mixing them into the rest of the mixture
    • Once eggplant is done, remove from oven and leave to cool for about 10 minutes, until cool enough to handle
    • Use a spoon or fork to scoop out the flesh from the skin (the flesh should fall out fairly easily) and add to the bowl
    • Mix well, taste and adjust seasonings as necessary
    • Keeps covered in the fridge for up to a few days

    To Serve:

    • Spread baba ganoush onto toast and top with desired ingredients
