Directions

  1. 1. Peel the turnips and cut them into thin slices. Place them in a pot with salted water covering them, plus an inch.
  2. 2. Turn the burner to high and let the water come to a full boil; reduce the heat to medium and let them cook for 30 minutes.
  3. 3. Remove the pot from the heat and drain the turnips completely in a colander.
  4. 4. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare a 13 by 9 by 2 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  5. 5. In a small pot melt the butter. Add the sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and pepper. Stir constantly until the sugar is dissolved and the spices are completely incorporated.
  6. 6. Place a layer of turnips in the bottom of the casserole dish. Pour a little of the butter mixture evenly over the turnip slices. Sprinkle a layer of cheddar cheese over the seasoned turnip slices.
  7. 7. Repeat the layers until you have used all of the turnip slices; be sure to end with cheese on the top of the final layer.
  8. 8. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve.
