Vegan Sweet Potato Souffle Recipe

Vegan Sweet Potato Souffle

I decided to make a flavorful twist of the traditional sweet potato casserole, 

This recipe for sweet potato souffle is definitely healthier than Paula Dean Sweet Potato Souffle And Trisha Yearwood Sweet Potato Souffle.

Coconut milk, with a blend of exotic spices, cardamom, coriander, and ginger and sweetened with coconut sugar and maple syrup added for a mouthwatering caramel flavor.

I then top the souffle with a delicious crunchy topping. I deliberately eliminated the sweet potato with marshmallow topping recipe so that I could maintain a healthier version.

Health Benefits Of Sweet Potatoes

Sweet Potato Souffle

Sweet potatoes are packed with nutrients, such as vitamins A and C, iron, magnesium, potassium and fiber.

They are naturally sweet and are considered to be low on the glycemic index, so they are great for diabetics.

Their high vitamin A content makes them especially great for vision health and glowing skin.

How To Bake Sweet Potatoes

To bake sweet potatoes, preheat oven 400 degrees. 

Scrub unpeeled potatoes, dry them with a paper towel and pierce with the tines of a fork.

Place potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for about 45 minutes or until fork-tender.

How To Make Vegan Sweet Potato Souffle

Spoon sweet potato souffle into a casserole dish and sprinkle topping over sweet potatoes.

Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown.  Allow to cool for 10 minutes, garnish with chopped pecans and serve.
