Turnip bake is a classic comfort food that has been enjoyed by families for generations. It is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold winter night. The main ingredient in turnip bake is, of course, turnips. Turnips are a root vegetable that is related to cabbage, broccoli, and cauliflower. They have a slightly sweet and peppery flavor that pairs well with other vegetables, such as potatoes, carrots, and celery. Turnip bake is typically made with a creamy sauce, which can be made from scratch or with a store-bought soup. The dish is then baked in the oven until the turnips are tender and the sauce is bubbly and golden brown.

TURNIP BAKE
This recipe has been in our family for years. We like turnips with turkey, so my mother used to serve this side dish with our turkey dinner at Christmas. Then I served this dish, and now my daughter, who has taken over preparing Christmas dinner, is carrying on the tradition.

Steps:
- Trim and peel turnips. Cut into chunks. Bring a 2 quart pan of water to boil. Add 2 tsp table salt and 2 tbsp white vinegar. Add turnips and boil until soft. Drain water. Mash turnips with 2 tbsp butter, cream and egg. Stir in 1/4 cup of the bread crumbs, sweetener and salt. Spoon into a casserole dish. Dot with remaining butter and sprinkle bread crumbs over the top. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes *I used Jennifer Eloff's recipe for Plain Bread, a quick microwave bread which toasted, makes good bread crumbs. Recipe Below 4 servings 165 cal. Jiffy Cinnamon Bread: 7 tbsp ground almonds (105 mL) 31/2 tsp coconut flour (17 mL) 31/2 tsp oat flour (17 mL) 1 tsp baking powder (5 mL) 1/2 tsp cinnamon (2 mL) 1/4 tsp salt (1 mL) 2 to 3 tbsp raisins, snipped (30 - 45 mL) in half 3 eggs 41/2 tsp heavy cream, OR almond milk, OR (22 mL) coconut milk Liquid sucralose to equal 4 tsp (20 mL) SPLENDA® Granular 11/2 tsp olive oil (7 mL) 3 tbsp shredded Monterey Jack cheese (45 mL) Spray an 8-inch (20 cm) square baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. In medium bowl, combine ground almonds, coconut flour, oat flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Stir in raisins. In small bowl, with fork, whisk eggs, heavy cream, liquid sucralose, OR SPLENDA® Granular and olive oil together. Make a well in center of dry ingredients and pour in egg mixture. Sprinkle with cheese and mix everything together really well until the mixture thickens slightly. Pour mixture into prepared pan. Spread out evenly. Microwave on high 2 minutes and 50 seconds (Your microwave might need different timing. Mine is powerful and runs hot.). Remove from microwave oven and immediately cut a cross in the bread dividing it length-wise and horizontally in half into 4 quadrants. Take each half and flip it over to allow the undersides to dry out a bit. When cool, slice each piece in half horizontally so that you have 8 slices of bread that are more or less the size of a slice of store-bought raisin bread. Place in the toaster and toast until nice and brown.. Variation: Plain Bread (great for toast): Omit raisins, cinnamon, sweetener and salt. Instead use 1/4 tsp (1 mL) onion salt. This recipe makes great grilled cheese sandwiches in a grilled cheese sandwich maker. Nutritional Analysis: 8 slices, 1 slice: 103.6 cal; 5.2 g pro; 8.2 g fat; 1.7 g carbs
Tips:
- Choose the right turnips: Look for turnips that are small, firm, and have smooth skin. Avoid turnips that are large, soft, or have blemishes.
- Peel the turnips thinly: This will help the turnips cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
- Boil the turnips until they are tender: This will take about 10-15 minutes. You can also microwave the turnips for 5-7 minutes, or roast them in the oven for 20-25 minutes.
- Add your favorite seasonings: Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder are all good choices. You can also add herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, or sage.
- Bake the turnips in a casserole dish: This will help them brown and caramelize.
- Serve the turnips hot: They can be served as a side dish or main course.
