Variations & Tips:
– For a gluten-free option, substitute all-purpose flour with your favorite gluten-free flour blend, and use gluten-free breadcrumbs.
– If you’re watching your oil intake, try a “fry” in the air fryer. You’ll still achieve that lovely crisp without all the oil.
– Don’t hesitate to experiment with seasonings in the breadcrumb mixture. Adding herbs like oregano, basil, or thyme can bring a delightful aromatic twist to the tomatoes.
– If there are any leftovers, which I doubt there will be, they can be reheated in the oven to bring back some of the crispiness.
– As always, the joy of cooking is making it your own, so feel free to adjust and add to this recipe as you find fit to suit your family’s taste. Teach the kids to dip and coat the tomato slices – it’s a fun way to get them involved and learning their way around the kitchen!
