Souffle Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

1

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease four ramekins with unsalted butter and dust with granulated sugar to prevent sticking.

2

Make the Base

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for about 1 minute until it forms a paste. Gradually whisk in the milk, and continue whisking until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.

3

Incorporate Egg Yolks

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Gradually add the warm milk mixture to the yolks, whisking continuously to prevent curdling. Set aside.

4

Whip Egg Whites

In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Gradually add the powdered sugar while continuing to beat until the mixture is glossy.

5

Fold Mixtures Together

Gently fold the egg white mixture into the egg yolk mixture, being careful not to deflate the egg whites.

6

Bake the Souffles

Divide the mixture evenly among the prepared ramekins. Place them in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the souffles are puffed and golden.

7

Serve

Remove from the oven and serve immediately, dusted with additional powdered sugar if desired.
