Notes
This may take a few batches to complete all of the eggplant. It will vary depending on the size of the eggplant you use, but one eggplant will typically make 12-16 slices.
Remember that all air fryers heat differently, which is why it's important to check it halfway through the cook time. Using foil is optional, for us it makes it easier as far as clean up goes.
