Sweet Potato and Eggplant Casserole
[Vegan, Gluten-Free]

To Make the Baked Eggplant:

1. Preheat oven to 345°F. Make the oil mixture by adding the spices and oil to the casserole dish, adding salt to taste. This will leave the dish greased for the second part of this recipe.
2. Slice the eggplants into about 1/2-inch thick disks. Coat eggplant with the oil mixture and spread onto a baking sheet covered with parchment paper.
3. Bake for 20-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through.

To Make the Casserole:

1. Increase the oven temperature to 390°F. Mix the tomato sauce, coconut milk, Ras el hanout, cumin, and salt.
2. Peel and cut sweet potatoes into disks. Place them on the bottom of the casserole dish and cover with the chickpeas. Place baked eggplant on top and cover with the sauce.
3. Bake for 40-45 minutes.
4. Remove from oven and serve.
