Instructions:

Boil the potatoes: Start by boiling the sweet potatoes with the skins on until they are tender. This usually takes about 20 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes. You can test for doneness by inserting a fork into the potatoes; they should be soft all the way through.
-
Prepare the sweet potatoes: Once the potatoes are tender, peel them and run them through a potato ricer into an electric mixing bowl. This will ensure a smooth and creamy texture for your souffle.
-
Mix in the ingredients: To the mashed sweet potatoes, add the salt, butter, egg, raisins, half-and-half, and nutmeg. Whip the mixture until it becomes light and fluffy, ensuring all ingredients are well combined.
-
Transfer to a baking dish: Grease a baking dish and transfer the sweet potato mixture into it, spreading it out evenly.
-
Top with marshmallows (optional): For an extra touch of sweetness and a beautiful golden finish, sprinkle miniature marshmallows over the top of the sweet potato mixture.
-
Bake: Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C). Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for about 10 minutes, or until the marshmallows are lightly browned and the dish is hot throughout.
-
Serve: Once baked, remove the Sweet Potato Souffle from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. This dish pairs perfectly with a variety of main courses and makes a delightful addition to any meal.
Enjoy Your Sweet Potato Souffle!
Whether served alongside roasted meats or enjoyed on its own, this Sweet Potato Souffle is sure to be a hit with family and friends. Its creamy texture, hint of sweetness from the raisins, and fluffy marshmallow topping make it a comfort food favorite for any occasion.
