OATMEAL SOUFFLE WITH CRUNCHY TOPPING

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees.
• Spray four 5-oz souffle molds, custard cups or ovenproof bowls with nonstick cooking spray; place in 15x10x1 inch baking pan.
• In a small saucepan bring the milk and butter just to a boil.
• Gradually add oats while stirring constantly.
• Reduce the heat to medium-low; cook 1 to 2 minutes or until oats thickened, stirring often.
• Remove from heat; pour the oat mixture into a large bowl.
• Add sugar, salt, cinnamon, sour cream and 1 egg yolk; stir until smooth.
• Add dried fruit and set aside.
• In a medium bowl beat all 3 egg whites until stiff but not dry.
• Gently fold egg whites into oat mixture using a rubber scraper.
• Do not overmix; small lumps of egg white will remain.
• Gently spoon the mixture into molds.
• Sprinkle the tops with brown sugar.
• Place in preheated oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until souffles are puffy and a knife inserted in center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
• Serve immediately.
