My New Fav–Turnip Fries! | Hinsdale Area Moms

Have you tried TURNIP Fries, yet? I know you may be thinking, first they made pizza crust out of cauliflower, but now French Fries made of turnips? I was skeptical, too, friends! I have to admit that I actually really like these and my kiddos ate them too! They have a more peppery flavor than regular potato fries, but they are certainly a “low carb” option and a way to get some more veggies in! Let me know if you try these. Here is a recipe I have been loving. Bon Apetit!

INGREDIENTS:

  • 4 turnips
  • 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil (coconut oil and avocado oil would also work)
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder (or a seasoning mix of your choosing, I like M Salt or a little cayenne, too)
  • sea salt and black pepper, to taste

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Preheat oven to 425 F.
  2. Peel turnips and cut into steak fries, about ½ inch thick.
  3. In a large bowl, toss all ingredients until turnip fries are well coated.
  4. Place in a single layer on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes.
  6. Flip fries and bake an additional 15-20 minutes
