Ingredients
- 3 turnips (600g)
- 1 apple peeled, cored and diced
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
For the topping
- 1 cup plain dried bread crumbs (125g)
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F / 190°C. Grease an 8-inch square baking dish with oil or butter.
- Peel the turnips and cut into small cubes.
- Place the turnips into a pot of water, bring to the boil then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes or until tender. Drain well.
- Add the cooked turnips to a mixing bowl with the diced apple, and toss with the flour and baking powder.
- Stir in the lightly beaten eggs, melted butter, sugar, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Toss to combine, then pour into the prepared baking dish.
- In a small bowl, whisk the topping ingredients together, then sprinkle over the turnip mixture.
- Bake, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes or until risen and cooked.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Ensure that the turnips and apples are all cut roughly the same size. This helps them cook evenly.
- For the best flavor, use sweet, eating apples, like Honeycrisp or gala.
- If you don't have plain bread crumbs, you can use panko breadcrumbs or even cracker crumbs.
- If the top looks like it is getting too browned, you can add a layer of foil to the top for the remainder of the cooking time.
- You can also make this urnip casserole in a slow cooker. Simply assemble the ingredients in the pot, set it on low, and cook for four hours or until the turnips are tender.
