Pumpkin Vermont Chevre And Jonah Crab Souffle Recipes

EASY AND LIGHT PUMPKIN SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 380 °F.
• Beat egg whites in medium bowl until stiff. Set aside.
• Using electric mixer, blend pumpkin, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, egg yolk and milk in large bowl.
• Fold 1/3 of egg whites into pumpkin blend. Continue to fold in egg whites 1/3 at a time until egg whites are completely folded inches.
• Have small ramekins or coffee cups at ready with wax paper placed around edges and inside (trust me, it's easier to clean).
• Pour pumpkin/egg mix into cups until almost full (leave about a half inch or more at the top as they will rise).
• Place cups on baking tray and put into oven.
• Bake for 30-45 minutes
• DO NOT OPEN OVEN TO CHECK ON SOUFFLES! USE OVEN LIGHT!
• Top with whipping cream/ice cream, brown sugar, nuts, cinnamon/nutmeg or any other desired toppings.

EASY SWEET PUMPKIN SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Beat the flour, sugar, oil, eggs, and milk together.
• Add the can of pumpkin, blending in well.
• Blend in the cinnamon and coriander well. If you want it to have more of a pumpkin pie taste, use 2-3 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice instead.
• Grease a 9x13 glass baking dish with some canola oil (about a tablespoon or two) and pour the mixture into it, dispersing evenly.
• Bake at 350F for 65-70 minutes (only 60 if you used non-dairy milk.).
• Let cool for at least 15-20 minutes prior to eating. It's delicious warm, but I like it better cold with some SoyWhip and extra cinnamon sprinkled on top! It also microwaves well if you want to eat it warm (nuke a medium-size square about 30 seconds on high.).
• Rolled oats and raw green pepitas also make nice toppings to add to this after the souffle has baked at least 30 minutes.

CHEVRE SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Butter the inside of a 2 1/2quart souffle dish. In a large saucepan, melt the butter, add the flour and whisk to form a smooth roux. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the milk and whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth and thick, then cook at a low boil, stirring constantly, for another 2 to 3 minutes.
• Remove the mixture from the heat, add the chevre and stir until the cheese is melted and wellincorporated. Stir in the egg yolks and season generously with salt and pepper (the seasoning should be intense here to compensate for the later addition of the egg whites).
• With an electric mixer or by hand with a whisk, whip the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Stir 1/4 of the egg whites into the cheese mixture to lighten it, then carefully fold in the remaining egg whites. Fill the prepared souffle mold; it should be about 3/4 full. Sprinkle the top of the souffle with the dried thyme. Bake in the preheated oven until risen, golden brown and just barely firm in the center, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve immediately.

CHOCOLATE PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the inside of an 8-inch souffle dish. Place in a roasting pan that fits the dish.
• Add the cream cheese, pumpkin puree and butter to a medium bowl. Using a rubber spatula, mix together until smooth and well combined. Switch to a whisk and add the egg yolks one at a time, making sure they are fully incorporated before adding the next yolk. Add the cake flour, vanilla and cinnamon and mix well until smooth. Slowly add the milk until fully incorporated. Set aside.
• Beat the egg whites in a large bowl using an electric hand mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes. With the mixer running, slowly sprinkle in the sugar until glossy and stiff peaks form. Fold one-third of the egg white into the cream cheese mixture using the whisk until incorporated. Repeat with another third. Now add the cream cheese mixture into the bowl with the remaining egg white and, using a spatula, gently fold in the remaining egg white until no streaks remain.
• Pour the mixture into the prepared dish. Drizzle with the melted chocolate and run a skewer through the top to make a design. Fill the roasting pan with enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the souffle dish and place in the oven. Bake for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 300 degrees F and continue to bake until the souffle is just set but still a little jiggly in the center, about 50 minutes. Allow to cool to room temperature in the water bath. Remove from the water and refrigerate to cool completely, at least 2 hours. Use a large spoon to serve the souffle.
