Turnips are sooooo good, I HATED them when I was a kid, my mom would make us eat them when we had a cold. It turns out they are a great natural source of vitamin C. Since Baby B and I have been fighting a cold (medicine free!) I have been including turnips in every meal (Sorry Baby B if you hate them too, but "Mama knows best!"). Last night I had the brilliant idea of making turnip muffins, with out eggs or dairy (both are best to be avoided when you have a cold)
so my "muffins" were more like bread, still very good, Mr. Baftani agreed.
Here is the recipe:
2 Medium Size Japanese Turnips (boiled and mashed)
1/3 Cup Unbleached All Purpose Flour
1/4 Cup Grape Seed Oil
1/4 Cup Honey
1 tbsp Chia Seeds (before soaking, after soaking they are more like 3 tbsp)
1/2 tsp Cinnamon
1/2 tsp baking soda
A pinch of salt
Try it!
