Ingredients

Servings

FOR THE SOUFFLE:

  • 5 large sweet potatoes (about 7 cups once mashed)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted or at room temperature
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon increase to 1 teaspoon if you LOVE cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ cup milk (I used 1%)

FOR THE TOPPING:

  • ¼ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 ¼ cups pecans finely chopped
  • ¼ cup flaked coconut optional (I used unsweetened; sweetened will work too)
  • ½ cup brown sugar packed
  • cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper. With a fork, poke holes in the outsides of the sweet potatoes. Bake for 40 to 60 minutes (timing will depend upon the size of your sweet potatoes), until very tender when pierced with a fork. Set aside to cool.
  2. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F. Coat a 9x13 casserole dish or similar 2 ½ quart casserole dish with nonstick spray.
  3. Once the sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, remove the peels. Scoop out the sweet potato flesh and place it in a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. (You can also use an electric hand mixer.)
  4. Add the butter, eggs, sugar, maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and milk.
  5. Beat until smoothly combined.
  6. Scoop into the prepared baking dish.
  7. Next, prepare the topping. In a medium mixing bowl, melt the butter. Sprinkle the chopped pecans, coconut, brown sugar, flour, and salt over the top. Stir until evenly moistened and combined. Scatter the streusel topping over the sweet potatoes in an even layer.
  8. Bake the sweet potato souffle until the topping is lightly browned and your kitchen smells amazing, about 40 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes, then enjoy warm.
