Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

6 lb sweet potato, peeled and chopped
2 tablespoons kosher salt, divided
½ cup unsalted butter, 1 stick, room temperature
1 cup milk
3 large eggs
6 raw sweet potatoes, 2-inch (5-cm) square slices
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons green onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced

½ cup crushed pecans
20 large marshmallows, halved crosswise
1 cup bread crumbs
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
¼ cup bacon bits
1 tablespoon olive oil
green onion, sliced, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
  • Add the chopped sweet potatoes and 1 tablespoon of salt to a large pot of cold water. Bring to a boil and cook for 15 minutes, or until very tender. Drain and let cool slightly.
  • Transfer the sweet potatoes to a large bowl. Add the butter, remaining tablespoon of salt, the milk, and eggs. Mix with an electric hand mixer until the potatoes are mashed and everything is well incorporated.

  • Make the sweet base: To a bowl, add the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. Mix well to combine.
  • Make the savory base: To the other bowl, add the green onions, garlic, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
  • Spread the sweet base in one side of a 9x13-inch (23x33-cm) baking dish. Press the uncooked sweet potato slices against the exposed side of the sweet base as a divider, then spread the savory base in the other side of the pan.
  • Make the sweet topping: In a small bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, flour, and pecans, and mix until crumbly. Sprinkle over the sweet base.
  • Make the savory topping: In another small bowl, combine bread crumbs, salt, pepper, bacon bits, and oil, and stir to combine. Sprinkle the crumbs over the savory base.

Tips:

  • Choose sweet potatoes that are firm and smooth, with no blemishes or bruises. You can cook the potatoes ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator for up to 4 days before assembling the soufflé.
  • To make the soufflé extra creamy and rich, use heavy cream or half-and-half instead of milk. You can also add a tablespoon of sour cream or yogurt for extra tanginess.
  • If you don't have a blender or food processor, you can mash the sweet potatoes by hand. Just be sure to mash them until they are very smooth, with no lumps.
  • Gently fold the egg whites into the sweet potato mixture until just combined. Overmixing will deflate the egg whites and make the soufflé less fluffy.
  • Bake the soufflé in a preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until it is puffed and golden brown. Do not open the oven door during baking, as this can cause the soufflé to collapse.
  • Serve the soufflé immediately, as it will start to deflate after it is removed from the oven.

Conclusion:

Sweet potato soufflé is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish or a main course. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its creamy texture and sweet flavor, sweet potato soufflé is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
