2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Peel the turnips and slice 1/8 inch thick (use a mandoline if you have one).

Cover with aluminum foil and bake until the turnips are very tender, 35 to 40 minutes.

Uncover and continue baking until the cream mixture is slightly thickened and the top is golden, about 10 more minutes.
7
Meanwhile, make the topping: Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.

Add the breadcrumbs, almonds and the remaining 1 teaspoon thyme and cook, stirring, until the breadcrumbs are toasted, about 4 minutes.
