How to Make Irresistible Creamy Sweet Potato Soufflé

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish with unsalted butter.
  • Place sweet potatoes on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake for 45-60 minutes until tender.
  • Once cooled, scoop the soft potato flesh into a mixing bowl, combine with butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and milk or cream until creamy.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently to maintain airiness.
  • Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth out the top.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
  • Serve warm and optionally garnish with fresh herbs.

Notes

Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days. Gently reheat to restore fluffiness.
