Ingredients
- 1 aubergine, sliced into 1cm thick rounds
- 1 round crusty loaf
- 2-3 Tbsp pesto
- 1 jar roasted peppers
- 1 jar roasted artichokes, chopped
- 1 ball Mozzarella
Instructions
- Brush both sides of the aubergine slices with olive oil and Air Fry for 10 minutes at 205°C.
- Meanwhile, cut the top of the loaf of bread and remove the center, creating a hollow space for the filling.
- Begin with a layer of the cooked aubergine slices, followed by a spread of pesto, then a layer of sliced peppers. Add another layer of pesto, the sliced mozzarella cheese, and chopped artichokes.
- Repeat these layers until the loaf is filled to the top, finishing with a layer of pesto on top then place the top of the loaf back on.
- Bake the filled loaf in the Air Fryer at 160°C for about 20minutes until the cheese is melted and gooey.
- Wrap the loaf as a whole in foil if planning to take to a picnic, or slice and enjoy immediately!
