Pumpkin Soufflé

Pumpkin Soufflé

Instructions

Ingredients:

Streusel topping:

Instructions:

  1. Lightly beat the 2 large eggs (you can do this with a fork or a small whisk). Set aside.
  2. Chop the 1 cup of pecan halves. Set aside.
  3. In a medium mixing bowl, add the large egg white and cream of tartar. Use an electric, or handheld beater to whisk the egg whites on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form (when the egg whites stick to the whisks without falling off). This will take a few minutes. Set aside.
Streusel Topping:
  1. In a medium mixing bowl, add the flour, salt, brown sugar, maple syrup, 4 tablespoons of butter, and half of the chopped pecans. *(We will use the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in Step #6). Set aside.

Making the soufflé:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F/190°C.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add the pumpkin purée, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt, vanilla extract, and plain yoghurt. Whisk together until incorporated.
  3. Add in the melted butter, and maple syrup, blend with a whisk, and then pour in the lightly beaten eggs. Whisk to incorporate. 
  4. Fold in the whisked egg white with the pumpkin mixture, a spoonful at a time until blended to form a batter. Then, add the remaining chopped pecans to the pumpkin batter.
  5. Pour the pumpkin batter evenly into the non-stick 1.75 Qt.-capacity baking dish. Smooth the top with a spatula, if needed. 
  6. Add the streusel topping evenly on top of the pumpkin batter in the baking dish. Place in the oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is deep golden brown and the middle is not jiggly.
  7. Remove from the oven. Set aside to rest for at least 5 minutes.
  8. Whilst the pumpkin soufflé cools, in a small saucepan or non-stick skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter, until it becomes slightly brown and bubbly. Remove from the heat, then stir in 2 tablespoons of maple syrup. 
  9. Drizzle the maple butter sauce over the pumpkin soufflé to finish the dish. Grate a light sprinkle of nutmeg over the entire dish before serving. Serve hot or warm. Enjoy alone, with a scoop of ice cream, or a dollop of whipped cream.
