For a richer flavor, use browned butter in the turnip mash. Add a handful of chopped pecans or walnuts to the crumb topping for extra crunch. A splash of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice can brighten the apple mixture. This dish can be prepared ahead of time and baked just before serving. Assemble the casserole, cover, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Add an additional 10-15 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold. If you don't have brown sugar, you can make your own by mixing 1 cup of granulated sugar with 1 tablespoon of molasses.
