Sweet Potato Souffle

Wednesday, December 23, 2009


I made this recipe for Thanksgiving dinner, and have been asked to make it again for Christmas. I am not much of a "Sweets" person, and while this recipe is inherently sweet because of the sweet potatoes, it is not sugary sweet w/ extra marshmallows, orange juice, etc. I have to send a shout out to my friend Bravo for sharing it with me twice!! I can't take credit for this one...

Sweet Potato Souffle

Here's what I used:

6 cups mashed cooked sweet potatoes (4-6 depending on size)
1 stick butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup milk

1 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup melted butter
1/3 cup AP Flour
1 cup chopped walnuts

Here's what I did:

First I skinned and cubed my sweet potatoes, and set them to boil in a large pot of water, until fork tender. Then I mashed them up with a hand-held potato masher, but you can also use a mixer or a fork to mash them up. Add the butter, vanilla extract and milk, and then put mixture in a glass casserole dish and bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes.

In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, melted butter, flour and walnuts. Then sprinkle/spread over top of the potatoes and bake another 15 minutes.
