Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lb Rutabagas
1/2 cup heavy whipping Cream
¼ tsp Nutmeg
½ tsp Salt
2 Eggs
2 tbsp molasses
½ tsp Cinnamon
½ tsp ground Ginger
¼ cup Breadcrumbs
3 tbsp Butter (cold)

Steps:

  • Peel the rutabagas and cut them into large chunks. Then, cook the rutabagas. You can do this by boiling them in salted water for about 35-40 minutes OR you can cook them in the Instant Pot. To cook them in the Instant Pot, place the rutabaga pieces on the trivet and then pour 2 cups of water into the pot. Cook on HIGH for 10 minutes with a 10 minute natural release.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • When the rutabagas are cooked, drain them, then mash them with a potato masher.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, nutmeg, salt, eggs, molasses, cinnamon, ground ginger, and breadcrumbs together. Then, mix that into the mashed rutabagas.
  • Spray a 8x8 pan with nonstick spray, then pour the rutabaga mixture into the pan.
  • Sprinkle the breadcrumbs on top. You can use your spoon or a knife to create a design on the top of the casserole.
  • Slice the butter into 9 equal squares, and place the butter on top of the breadcrumbs so that it will melt during baking.
  • Bake the casserole for about 1 hour. Cut into squares, serve, and enjoy!
