How to Make Sweet Potato Souffle With Praline Topping

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 2-quart baking dish with butter and set aside.
  3. In a large saucepan, boil 2 pounds of sweet potatoes, peeled and quartered, in enough water to cover until tender (about 15-20 minutes).
  4. Drain the sweet potatoes and let them cool slightly.
  5. In a large bowl, mash the cooled sweet potatoes.
  6. Add 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 4 large eggs, and 1/2 cup milk to the mashed sweet potatoes.
  7. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and well combined.
  8. Pour the sweet potato mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  9. To make the praline topping, combine 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 cup chopped pecans, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, and 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) melted unsalted butter in a small bowl.
  10. Mix until crumbly.
  11. Sprinkle the praline topping evenly over the sweet potato mixture.
  12. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the souffle is golden brown and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
