Turnip Puff

Turnip is one of my favourite veggies to accompany a turkey dinner and Christmas time is the perfect opportunity to try a new variation on and old classic.  This side dish is a favourite of mine that my mom would frequently bring to large family dinners.  It's light and fluffy but still has that good ol' turnip taste.  I know it's hard to deviate from the norm, but step outside the box this year and try a new side dish.

Ingredients
6 cups of cubes turnip
3 tbsp of flour
2 tbsp of butter
1 tbsp of brown sugar
2 eggs beaten
1 tsp of baking powder
Salt and Pepper to taste

Cook turnip and mash, then add in the butter and eggs
Combine dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and pepper) and add to turnip mixture
Once mixed pour into a greased casserole dish and bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes or until light brown and puffy.  Serve warm and enjoy.
