Amish Turnip Bake - GF Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by aerin8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb small turnips
2 tbsp white vinegar
2 tsp table salt
3 tbsp butter (divided use)
2 tbsp cream
1 egg
2/3 cup bread crumbs*
Sweetener equal to 2 tsp of sugar
1 tsp sea salt

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 to medium in size, with smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid turnips that are large, as they may be woody and bitter.
  • Peel and cube the turnips: Use a sharp knife to peel the turnips, then cut them into 1-inch cubes. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Boil the turnips: Place the cubed turnips in a large pot of boiling water. Bring the water back to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the turnips are tender.
  • Drain and mash the turnips: Once the turnips are tender, drain them in a colander and return them to the pot. Use a potato masher or fork to mash the turnips until they are smooth and creamy.
  • Add your desired seasonings: Season the mashed turnips to taste with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings, such as butter, milk, or cream.
