Sweet Potato Soufflé (from Gather)

A soufflé may seem like an intimidating side dish, but you’ll be surprised by how easy it is to make. Take a little bit of extra care to time this dish, though, so that it can be served within moments of coming out of the oven. This will help to prevent the puffed top from subsiding as the steam escapes. (This recipe is from our second cookbook, Gather, available on Amazon and in our website store.)

Process

Peel the sweet potatoes, and chop them into 2-inch pieces. In a medium saucepan, place the sweet potato pieces, and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil, and cook until the sweet potatoes are fork tender (about 30-35 minutes). Remove the sweet potatoes from the heat, and drain the water.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Place the boiled sweet potatoes into a high speed blender or food processor. Add the eggs, butter, coconut milk, maple sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt, and process the mixture until smooth. Pour the mixture into a large soufflé dish, and bake for 45-60 minutes. The soufflé will be done when you can gently shake the dish, and the soufflé is firm but jiggles slightly.
