Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Step 2
Peel the turnips, then slice them into wedges, similar in size to traditional potato wedges.

In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 6
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the turnips and toss again until all the wedges are coated with the spices.
Step 7
Spread the seasoned wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded for even baking.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through, until they are golden brown and tender.
Step 9
Remove the turnip taters from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
