Spray two rimmed cooking sheets with cooking spray. Arrange eggplant slices in a single layer and spray lightly with more cooking spray. Roast at 400 degrees until lightly browned, about 10 minutes per side.
Reduce oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat bottom of 9 x 13 baking dish with marinara sauce. Arrange eggplant slices in a single layer on sauce, followed by one-third of the mozzarella, and half the basil and sauce.
