Ingredients
- 2 pounds carrots
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large whole eggs
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 2-quart baking dish.
Step 2
Peel and chop the carrots into equal-sized chunks. Steam or boil the carrots for 15-20 minutes, or until they are very tender. Drain well.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl or blender, combine the cooked carrots, granulated sugar, eggs, flour, baking powder, vanilla extract, melted unsalted butter, and milk.
Step 4
Blend or mix until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Step 5
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Step 6
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the souffle is set and lightly golden on top. Test for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center; it should come out clean.
Step 7
Remove the souffle from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes. Optionally, dust the top with powdered sugar before serving.
Step 8
Serve warm as a sweet side dish or dessert. Enjoy!
