For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of garlic powder or smoked paprika to the cornmeal mixture. To achieve maximum crispness, use a wire rack on top of the baking sheet to allow air to circulate around the tomato slices. These baked green tomatoes are delicious served as an appetizer, a side dish, or even as a topping for salads or sandwiches.
