Scale recipe by: ×

2 lb parsnips, peeled and cut into 2" pieces

3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided

Kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

1 head garlic

3/4 cup milk

4 Tbsp butter

2 tsp thyme leaves

Preheat oven to 400 F.
Place parsnips on a large baking sheet and drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper.

Cut off top of garlic head and drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Wrap tightly in foil and place on a baking sheet with parsnips.

Bake until parsnips are very tender, 40 minutes. Garlic should be golden and very soft; if not, place back in oven and continue to bake another 15 minutes. Set aside until cool enough to handle.

Place parsnips into a large bowl or food processor. Squeeze each clove of garlic into bowl with parsnips. Add milk, butter, and thyme and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
