• 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 3 large Eggs

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish and set aside.

Step 2

Peel and slice the carrots into 1-inch pieces. Place them in a large pot of boiling water and cook until they are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the carrots thoroughly.

Step 3

Transfer the cooked carrots to a blender or food processor. Add the butter and blend until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, flour, and baking powder. Stir to mix evenly.

Step 5

Add the pureed carrots, vanilla extract, milk, and eggs to the dry ingredients. Mix until the batter is smooth and well-combined.

Step 6

Pour the carrot mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the soufflé is set in the center and the edges are lightly browned.

Step 8

Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool slightly. Dust the top with powdered sugar before serving.

Step 9

Serve warm and enjoy this sweet and savory carrot soufflé as a side dish or dessert option!
