Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Turnips
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 4 tablespoons Sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Chives
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and dry the turnips thoroughly, removing any dirt.
Slice off both ends of each turnip to create a flat surface, then slice in half lengthwise.
Place turnip halves in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle olive oil over the turnips and add salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss until well-coated.
Arrange turnip halves cut-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until turnips are golden and fork-tender.
Remove from oven and let cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
Top each turnip half with a small pat of butter and 1 tablespoon of sour cream.
Sprinkle with chopped chives before serving for a fresh burst of flavor.
Serve warm, alongside your favorite keto main dish.
