Ingredients:

2 tbsp coconut oil
1 large eggplant (1 1/4 lb.)
3 oz. grated mozzarella (3/4 cup)
3/4 oz. Parmesan (1/4 cup)
1/2 tsp dried hot red pepper flakes
1 10” pizza shell
2 tbsp minced garlic

Directions:

1. Cut eggplant into 1/3-inch-thick rounds and arrange in 1 layer on a foil-lined large baking sheet. Lightly brush both sides with oil and season with salt. Broil 2 to 3 inches from heat until golden brown and tender, 3 to 8 minutes on each side.
2. Toss together cheeses and sprinkle 1/4 over pizza shell. Cover with eggplant, overlapping it, and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Heat oil in a small skillet over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then cook garlic and red pepper, stirring, until just fragrant, 30 to 40 seconds. Spoon evenly over eggplant.
3. Bake until dough is crisp and browned. Slide peel under pizza to remove from oven.
