Ingredients

• 500 grams parsnips
• 50 grams all-purpose flour
• 100 grams granulated sugar
• 250 milliliters whole milk
• 50 grams unsalted butter
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Peel the parsnips and chop them into small, even-sized pieces.

Step 2

Boil the parsnips in a pot of salted water for 15 minutes or until they are soft and easy to mash. Drain and let them cool slightly.

Step 3

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a baking dish with a small amount of butter.

Step 4

Mash the boiled parsnips until smooth. You can use a potato masher or a food processor for a finer texture.

Step 5

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.

Step 6

Add the mashed parsnips and flour to the wet mixture. Stir until everything is evenly combined and a smooth batter is formed.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Place the dish in the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the pudding is golden brown and set in the center. A knife inserted into the middle should come out clean.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and allow the pudding to cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm as a sweet side dish or drizzle with cream or caramel sauce for dessert.
