Sweet Potato Soufflé

INGREDIENTS:

Filling:

4 large or 5 medium sweet potatoes (about 6 cups mashed)

1/2 cup butter, softened

1 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup granulated sugar

2 tsp ground cinnamon

2 eggs

1/2 cup whole milk

1 tbsp vanilla extract

1/4 tsp salt

Topping:

2/3 cup light brown sugar

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 tsp kosher salt

1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

1 1/2 cups Dickey Farms pecan halves

5 tbsp melted butter

 

INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat oven to 425°F. Wash and thoroughly dry outside of sweet potatoes. Wrap in aluminum foil, and place on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet. Bake for 1 1/2 hours; remove and allow to cool until you can easily remove the skins, about 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray; set aside. In the bowl of a mixer or with an electric hand mixer, beat sweet potatoes on medium-high until they become smooth, about 2 minutes. Add butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon; mix until fully combined. Add eggs, milk, vanilla, and salt; beat on medium high until the mixture is fully mixed. Pour into prepared baking dish.

In a bowl, stir together brown sugar, flour, salt, and cinnamon until well combined. Add pecans and toss to coat. Add melted butter and stir until butter is evenly absorbed. Scatter across the surface of the soufflé. Bake until the center of the soufflé is set and does not jiggle when tapped, 45 to 55 minutes.

Enjoy!
