Ingredients

• 2 large apples (peeled, cored, and thinly sliced)
• 2 tablespoons almond flour
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 3 large egg yolks
• 3 large egg whites
• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar substitute (e.g., stevia or erythritol)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.125 teaspoon salt
• 1 as needed butter or nonstick cooking spray (for greasing ramekins)
• 2 tablespoons sliced almonds (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease 4 individual ramekins (6-8 ounces each) with butter or nonstick cooking spray and set aside.

Step 2

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the thinly sliced apples, 1 tablespoon of the sugar substitute, and ground cinnamon. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, almond milk, egg yolks, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Stir in the cooled apple mixture.

Step 4

In a separate, clean mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar substitute, one tablespoon at a time, while continuing to beat the whites until stiff peaks form and the mixture is glossy.

Step 5

Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the apple and almond mixture in batches. Start by folding in about 1/3 of the whites to lighten the batter, then gently fold in the remaining whites, being careful not to deflate the mixture.

Step 6

Evenly divide the souffle batter among the prepared ramekins. Optionally, sprinkle sliced almonds on top for added texture and flavor.

Step 7

Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and transfer to the oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the souffles have risen and are golden brown on top. Avoid opening the oven door during baking to prevent deflation.

Step 8

Serve the souffles immediately while they are still puffed and warm. Enjoy your delicious, healthy dessert!
