Maple-glazed Parsnips

January 10, 2009 · 5 comments

I love parsnips.   They’re a wonderful comfort food for winter time.   They’re also rich in vitamins including and minerals including folic acid and potassium.

To make maple-glazed parsnips, you’ll need:

  • 1 lb Organic Parsnips, Peeled and Sliced Thin
  • 2 Tablespoons Ghee from Grass-fed Cows
  • ¼ C Organic, Grade-B Maple Syrup
  • Pinch of Sea Salt

Heat the ghee in a pan over medium-low heat until it melts, then add the parsnips.   Stir them frequently and cover them.   When the begin to soften and color a bit, add the maple syrup and continue to cook until the parsnips are cooked-through and tender and the maple syrup has been reduced to a thick consistency.

Serve warm at breakfast.   Serves 4.

Would this work with grassfed butter?

Hey -

Yes, the maple-glazed parsnips absolutely will work with butter in lieu of ghee.  I imagine it would work with coconut oil too, in a pinch.

 

Take Care-

This sounds delicious. I just happened to pick up a beautiful big parsnip at the farmer’s market today, and was wondering what to do with it!

I really hope you enjoyed the parsnips.  Maple-glazed is our all-time favorite way to do parsnips.  They’re also good with curry and cashews.

Are they sliced into rounds or strips?

Thanks!
