The La Comedia Sweet Potato Souffle Recipe is one of the most famous recipes at this local dinner theatre. It tastes sweet and satisfying, like dessert.
Mix sweet potatoes, sugar, eggs, milk, salt, and ⅓ cup of melted butter.
Butter the casserole dish with softened butter.
Put the potato mixture into the prepared 2-quart baking dish.
Mix the streusel topping ingredients and sprinkle them over the sweet potatoes.
For 35-45 minutes, bake uncovered at 350 degrees.
Tips
If fresh sweet potatoes aren’t readily available, use canned yams. When using canned yams in syrup, reduce the sugar in your favourite sweet potato soufflé recipe.
You can save time by cooking sweet potatoes in advance. Peel the sweet potatoes, chop them into chunks, and boil, steam, or roast them until fork-tender.
Once cooked, let the potatoes cool completely before storing them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days.
You can assemble the sweet potato soufflé ahead of time by whipping the sweet potato mixture together and spreading it into a greased casserole dish.
If serving with a pecan topping, store the premade topping in a separate container in the refrigerator and add it to the soufflé right before baking.
Stir well to avoid any cooked egg white streaks, and let the mash cool slightly before adding the egg to prevent scrambling.
