Ingredients
- 2 lb Rutabagas
- ½ 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
Instructions
- 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, and ground ginger 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!
Notes
- Recipe copyright The Foreign Fork. For educational or personal use only.
- You will need 2 lbs of rutabagas for this recipe. It took about 3 small rutabagas for me, but could also be made with 2 large ones.
- Nutmeg, Cinnamon, Ground Ginger, Salt
- If you can’t find this in your grocery store, half and half will also work
- Dark Sugar Cane Molasses is a good choice
- Make sure your breadcrumbs are very fine and that they are plain!
- Eggs, Butter
- If you don’t like the taste of molasses, you can also use syrup if you’d prefer. This leads to a less strong flavor.
- Rutabagas are waxed when you buy them in the grocery store, so make sure to wash them and peel them completely. You don’t want to be eating that!
- If you are boiling the water that you’re cooking the rutabagas in, make sure to salt it!
